It's perfectly valid to create an empty VM and set the boot directives to network boot (PXE) first. This allows external provisioning systems that utilize DHCP / TFTP / PXE boot methods to build Virtual Machines.

As an operator, I would like the ability for the CreateVm function to support the PXE boot options. This might be done by specifying an appropriate boot config directive that specifies the Network Boot options. In addition, a Config directive of pxe should be added to allow downstream use of the feature.
