This could be easily accomplished by using the CMS IPLer and a very
stripped down Linux kernel and a port of the PXE loader code. It's
basically TFTP plus some little stuff. 

If you went the Linux route, you could use the IPLer to put the NSS with
the minikernel system into memory in one piece, do the normal PXE DHCP
and tftp steps to put the kernel into a fixed location, and then crash
the "boot ROM" image by jumping directly to the new kernel.
