Hi,

I'm wondering if the default grml kernel is capable for pxeboot and 
nfsroot. 

There is only one thread in grml mlist mentioning pxeboot
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.grml.user/820

but I'm not sure what the conclusion is. Specifically, is the grml kernel 
built with the following features enabled as modules?

# DHCP support

CONFIG_IP_PNP=y
CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP=y

# NFS client support

CONFIG_NFS_FS=y
CONFIG_NFS_V3=y
CONFIG_NFS_V4=y
CONFIG_NFS_DIRECTIO=y

# NFS root support

CONFIG_ROOT_NFS=y

Also CONFIG_AUFS_EXPORT should be enabled too, for me to export aufs as 
nfsroot from the server.

Mika, if any of the above is not enabled in grml kernel, could you enable 
them in future releases?

thanks
