[Voyage-linux] Re: 0.8.0: netboot tools in initrd.img

[Teco Boot]

I have a error recovery grub entry, with netboot. Grub starts local
kernel with local initrd.img. Kernel is fine (same as live kernel),
but the initrd.img in voyage distribution is incomplete for usage 
with netboot. As bypass, I preload the live initrd.img from live 
(a renamed version).

It would be nice we have a complete initrd.img on Voyage distribution,
that supports netboot.

Thanks, Teco
