-=== HTTP booting and initramfs assembly === 
- 
-You can boot a Linux kernel directly from a web server using gPXE.  The kernel, initial ramdisk and other boot-time files (e.g. kernel modules for the network card) can also be loaded from the same web server. ​ There is no need to create dedicated ramdisk images containing drivers for each network card you want to be able to boot from.

-=== iSCSI booting Windows Server 2003 === 
- 
-It is possible to boot Windows Server 2003 from an iSCSI disk using gPXE.  This provides a direct replacement for commercial products such as winBoot/i. 
- 
-Here you can see the Device Manager in Windows Server 2003 showing that the only disk in the system is an "IET VIRTUAL-DISK"​ attached via iSCSI:

- 
-=== Configuration UI === 
- 
-gPXE allows you to store settings in the NIC EEPROM. ​ Though most network configuration is handed out via DHCP, it can be useful to be able to store certain information (such as iSCSI login usernames and passwords) on the NIC itself. 
- 
-A simple configuration user interface is provided:
