You should be able to dump the ISO to disk and boot that.
The only problem is to convince everyone to use the disk instead
of CDROM /dev special device names. I think one only has
to interactively change the "Root" parameter but haven't
tried it recently.

The f0 partition is raw data and not a file system.
cvs checkout the linux and palo repositories from your x86 and
you can build an XC palo which can talk to your disk.
