How to install the pxe patch and use it?

[Pollux Su]

Hi,all guys:
    I found that there is a pxe patch for livecd-creator tool.
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-livecd-list/2008-February/msg00063....
    But I have no idea about how to use this patch and how to build a pxe
bootable livecd. Would someone like to help me!
   Thanks for your time.

Yup, basically that's right.

As far as I know, you just run it like you do with livecd-iso-to-disk
and it shoves the squashfs into the initrd.

But I've never actually used the script.  Richard, Chris?
