OK, loading the SystemRescueCD from PXE via HTML or TFTP will not work<br><br><blockquote><blockquote style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;" class="gmail_quote">The client needs the <code>sysrcd.dat</code> file. If you use HTTP or TFTP for the third stage, then <code>sysrcd.dat</code>
will be downloaded into RAM so the client has to have enough memory
(estimated requirement: 400MB). If you use either NFSv3 or NBD then you
don't have this memory requirement and the client will make permanent
requests to the server each time it needs a file from the root
filesystem.

The dat file needed is 297MB Im going to try and mount it remotely, however, I do not believe I will have enough RAM free.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 16:55, John Schultz <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jschultz0614@gmail.com" target="_blank">jschultz0614@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
