This is a short overview about using network boot for s390x.

Overview

The network boot feature enhances the s390x ipl device and the s390-ccw bios with support for booting via a virtio-net boot device. A new address is added to the ccw ipl block providing the address of a s390-netboot.img which performs the actual load over the network. This code is targeted for 2.9.
