I've measured it, and it is 9.87 feet :)

If someone has knowledge about how this works and wants to add it, it 
would be relatively trivial.

Look at "action_sync.py" for starters, and follow that out to 
"pxegen.py".  

We'll also probably want to add a "--breed=solaris_x86_64" and a 
"--breed=sparc" to "item_distro.py".

I agree with Brandon that it's probably easier to do x86_64 first though 
I'll take patches for either.

That would get basic PXE fairly quickly, if we want to make koan work 
over there, that might be a bit more work... though maybe we don't need
that initially.

Thoughts?
