is it possible to BOOT off a WIRELESS lan?

[dpopiz]

you know how with ethernet, if your NIC and mobo support the right stuff, you can boot off the network and get into an OS without an HD?

can you do that with a wireless network? if so, how, and what sorts of things does the NIC and mobo have to support to make it work?

I'm interested in building a wireless music device (like an airport express), and I'd prefer to do without an HD in the machine. So is there an easy way to boot linux (any distro) or windows off a wireless LAN?

Linux Terminal Server Project has a floppy disk image that can boot up and access pcmcia network cards.

disklessworkstions.com This place sells flash disk modules. Flash memory that plugs into IDE and looks like a hard drive to the computer.
