Leveraging the new image generation framework, MINIX has now turn-key PXE booting capability. The booting process uses SYSLINUX, licensed under GPL2+. Due to the lack of NFS support, a ramdisk is provided as a root device. The generated ramdisk is quite huge for a network boot, but it can be trimmed down at a later date.
