Hi Leon and all,

Thank you for your hard work in exploring PXE/NFS for voyage all over 
the weekend.  Your work sounds impressive.  Please keep up.

May I further know what you are able to do after PXE boot and NFS 
mount?  I am going to do the same thing to provide a VMWare image for 
PXE boot for 0.2 release.  I am not sure you have already done the 
same.  My idea is:

- Provide a VMWare image as a PXE/TFTP/NFS server (the Install Server) 
hosting voyage distro images which are exported to NFS mount.
- After client boot from PXE, it is able to mount NFS on the Install Server
- Then, you can run voyage.update on NFS mount, and install voyage to 
the client's local disk device,  e.g. CF on WRAP.

That's my idea so far.  I know NFS is one way for remote install, I am 
sure there are many other ways.  Please comment and discuss for the 
ultimate solution.
