Hi,

I'm developing a system that has an embedded x86 board on it (ComExpress board) 
.
The x86 module has BIOS and built-in NIC on it.
I have also an embedded-USB flash (think of it as a bolted-in USB stick).
I want to store my Linux kernel and OS on the USB flash and boot off it, but is 
emergency
cases I want to netboot from a remote server.
I can do a PXE boot from the built-in NIC, but I like the gPXE functionality.

Can I have the "gPXE-on-USB" functionality co-reside on a USB flash that 
contains also a bootable Linux image?

Thanks,

Jacob
