If he's wanting to do "sanboot" though, I'm not sure if that method would work. Perhaps it could chainload through ipxe again as you suggest -- you'd have to build into that intermediate system some form of "safe shutdown" that called kexec as its last dying gasp, but that's not out the realms of possibility. It's starting to sound more and more like a re-invention of EFI though ;) M
