[Voyage-linux] Fixed UGLY HACK on wiki - future PXE boot?

Hello,
I am totally new here. *Extremely* good to see people who take the 2.6.x
kernel to the WRAP board, I was a bit disappointed seeing all those
distro's sticking with 2.4.x and was almost convinced to go to pfSense
for FreeBSD 6.
Anyway, I noticed the ugly hack on the web site for PXE boot regarding
install modules.
I think I have presented a decent solution for it using the
INSTALL_MOD_PATH variable, maybe this was already known here but the
wiki was outdated?
Furthermore, for PXE the only thing necessary seems to be the
integration of the network driver in the kernel (fixed instead of a
module) to support booting root from NFS, although it should be able to
make to work using a ramdisk as well.
What method is being used for future Voyage Linux releases? Kernel
autoconfig with NFS root, or a ramdisk of some sort?
Also, there is a bug on this page:
http://voyage.hk/mailing-list/
Hover over the link in "To post a message, send mail to
voyage-linux at list.voyage.hk" <mailto:voyage-products at list.voyage.hk>
and you will notice it says voyage-products at ... instead of voyage-linux.
A copy-paste bug it seems.
Regards,
Leon.
