Comment # 15 on bug 1099548 from
KIWI offers support for two different dracut modules to handle Live images, as
stated and well explained in comment 5. PXE-booting live images built with KIWI
is already possible by using the livenet and dmsquash dracut modules, however
as Marcus and Fabian already pointed, this is not the module used in Leap Live
images. Those images use the `kiwi-live` module which provides automatic
persistency on writable media.

Either using one module or the other is a design choice as this is part of the
image description. The feature set of each module is different. KIWI module,
currently, is not supporting PXE like features as it does dmsquash plus livenet
modules.

Please note that this is not a KIWI bug, as mentioned in comment 5 there are
two ways to solve that:

* Include new features in kiwi-live module to enable pxe boot. We try to
address community demands at https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi

* Use dmsquash module at the cost of having to rebuild live images changing the
dracut live module in use and at the cost of loosing the automatic persistency
on writable media.
