I haven't seen any PXE implementations for wireless cards (though if
someone knows of a PCI one I'd be interested).  Using a bridging client
like one of the adapters for console systems might work with the Ethernet
port.  It's also possible there's an etherboot image out there.  I'd be
a quite surprised though if there was one that does WPA.
