	To note is that I've added the CP/M-86 1.44" image to my
	iPXE-based "Network boot" menu, too.  Now, virtually any x86
	machine (or an "emulation" thereof) in my LAN, may boot a
	CP/M-86 system given a suitable iPXE command sequence or script.

	The relevant parts of the iPXE "menu" script I've used are as
	follows:

#!ipxe

:menu
menu Boot menu
# ...
item cpm86  Boot CP/M-86 [cpm.z80.de/download/144cpm86.zip; memdisk]
# ...
item shell  Run iPXE Shell
choose boot && goto ${boot}

# ...

:cpm86
kernel /diskless/memdisk.lkrn
initrd ../bin/144cpm86.img
boot || exit 1

# ...

PS.  I'm quite sure that this configuration will work over Internet,
	too, but I'm somewhat reluctant to share the server's URI to
	point iPXE at, as this version of CP/M-86 doesn't seem like a
	free software (as in "free speech".)
