    Eyal,

    There is a bunch of PXE boot floppy solutions out there (a client-based
    firmware that allows you to boot an image from a server - XPe on floppy
    DOS). E.g., http://www.argontechnology.com/mbadisk/.
    Or search google for more.

    As PXE is a stardard protocol, it should work to RAM-boot an XPe image from
    RBS.
