This document summarizes the steps to deploy a custom Linux operating system using PXE boot and discusses some key components:
1) It outlines the process of setting up PXE boot using a DHCP and TFTP server to serve boot files to clients over the network, allowing them to boot directly from the network.
2) It then describes building a customized initramfs image and kernel that contains drivers and packages needed to access storage and complete the OS installation.
3) Finally, it summarizes the process of installing the customized Linux distribution by downloading packages over the network, partitioning and formatting disks, and installing the target OS before rebooting.
