[mythtv-users] Semi-OT - Netboot a mythfrontend?

[PAUL WILLIAMSON]

I know it's late the night before Thanksgiving in 
the US...I've got a quick question.  I'm trying to 
whip up a frontend to hook up to my main TV 
tomorrow to show off MythTV to a bunch of 
relatives.  I have a spare machine (just found 
it yesterday, woohoo!), but it has no hard drive.  
No biggie, I figure I can netboot it and keep it 
quiet as well.  I've googled all over the place, 
and I'm getting as far as the machine being able 
to read its configuration/boot file.  Every place 
on the 'net says that I need a boot image and an 
initrd.  The problem is, I can't find one.  If 
anyone has experience with doing net booting, 
I'd really appreciate the help.  Oh, I'm running 
FC2, kernel 2.6.8-1.521.  The target machine 
is a P3 1ghz machine.  I figure it's good enough 
to do frontend work...

Further to that, how do I build a myth frontend 
that will load up over a net booted session?  I've 
only ever done it via a local disk.  Come to think 
of it, I've never done a netboot setup before 
either, so I've got two battles to win before 
tomorrow at 2pm...

Thanks,
Paul
