As I mentioned earlier, I have a small (embedded style) computer that I want to use for some monitoring. My suspicion is that the SSD that’s fixed into it is causing problems, so I want to be able to boot the computer diskless (that is, I want to load the Operating System over the network).

Diskless booting is a task that’s not very common, but the idea of it has been around for quite a while. Back when storage was expensive but networking was cheaper, diskless workstations were available which could only boot in this manner. The typical process by which diskless booting happens is as follows.
