Everything is working quite well. Now some of the stations need sound, and there are an abundancy of pnp soundcards that workfine, but with the network boot I'm immediately in the kernel, no cli to config the PNP. Now if I include the INTRO_USERCONFIG, of course I get the cli but because /boot doesn't exist I can't save the info, and adds un-neccesary complication to machines that doen't need it.

A complete and utter disaster is the simplest thing in the world; it's preventing one that's complex.
