Yeah, I've got Debian boxes that have never *not* netbooted (one Dell

load GRUB/LILO, although Windows somehow works fine). So they boot
PXELinux using the PXE boot ROM on the NICs and it loads both a
kernel and an initramfs into memory. Kernel is stock Debian and
hardly has enough built-in to spit at you, let alone find network/
disks, but it manages to load everything it needs off the
automagically-generated initramfs.
