btw

* MEMDISK was tested directly using:
qemu-system-x86_64 -m 512 -kernel /tmp/archiso-tftp/memdisk -initrd 
/tmp/archiso-tftp/boot/archlinux.iso -append "archisolabel=ARCH_201006"

* PXE+MEMDISK (add a menu entry to 
/tmp/archiso-tftp/pxelinux.cfg/default like this)

LABEL memdisk
MENU LABEL memdisk
LINUX memdisk
INITRD /boot/archlinux.iso
APPEND iso

then booting via PXE any machine.
