If you have a DEUNA ethernet interface then this can be configured to
boot the main processor from a remote machine over the ethernet. The
manual isnt very clear about the protocol that needs to be implemented
on the remote machine to do this, however. Might be of some help though -
have a look at Appendix B of the DEUNA users guide.
