How to boot iSCSI target from console linux?
I need boot any images from iSCSI and I'd like to boot from linux console of a previous LiveCD booted. Is possible, without gpxe, ipxe firmware or similar? With a simple iSCSI initiator for example?

NAME
iscsi - iSCSI software initiator driver
The iscsi driver is a software initiator that transports SCSI commands over TCP/IP as described in RFC 3720. The initiator is administered
through iscsiadm(1M). The iscsi initiator acts as a host adapter driver that attaches the appropriate target driver (for example sd(7D) for
disks or st(7D) for tapes) for devices it discovers. See the System Administration Guide for more information.
