Sorry.  Several people have asked about PXE.  I know Erwan did some PXE
work for the clustering project, and I read the docs, but I don't have PXE
capable hardware to implement/test.  Patches welcome :)

That should be OK as you list.  I'm assuming the subnet is correct for you
network.  Any messages at the client or server end? Is clusternfs running

specifically, it's only done for /home for rw access.
