There is a solution that covers at least all the Mellanox InfiniBand
adapters. It is called FlexBoot and it is on the Mellanox web site -

The Mellanox devices supported are:
*	ConnectX(r) / ConnectX(r)-2 
*	InfiniHost(r) III Ex 
*	InfiniHost(r) III Lx

When googling for "pxe boot over infiniband" it seems this is not
possible
for all types of hardware. Is this correct? And if so, are there other
solutions (except connecting all nodes to a gigabit switch as well)?
