AJM,

At least 512mb would be good.  1gb is what I have on 
my two PXE booted machines.

Video - regular requirements.
NIC - one that uses PXE

Your backend is going to need a bit more space, because 
it houses what would normally be the local drive stuff.

Don't think of PXE as temporary.  It is as permanent 
as a local drive, it just does everything over the network.
The NIC is just one of the boot options, just like a 
local hard disk, floppy, cdrom, or event usb flash 
drive.

When I have upgraded myth on my diskless frontends, 
it is just like there is a local drive on the machine.
I have two totally different themes.  I'm actually 
working on a kid theme.  Maybe I'll actually finish it before 
my kids are ready to have kids of their own!

Paul, excellent write up!

As far as hardware is concerned what are we talking about here? M/B,
ram, video, NIC? What's common for this type of setup?

Since this is run from memory changes to the Myth FE would be
temporary so I assume you modify the 'init script' to make your
modifications to Myth, themes, etc.?

AJM,
