I also haven't seen any card or BIOS support PXE over wireless. Unless you
use a wireless bridge, you will need to have some local boot media (floppy,
usb, cdrom) which won't truly make it a diskless station, but close. You
might want to check out one of the numerous live linux distros, a number
support either CD or USB. Or check out bootdisk.com <http://bootdisk.com> or
nu2.nu <http://nu2.nu> (click boot_cd or boot_disk). The images from these
sites have worked from a usb stick quite well for me.
