not sure what you mean by motivate ... ? > what are "other network boot methods"? ltsp in ubuntu started using NBD+unionfs+squashfs instead of NFS, and debian-live uses has a network boot methods using cifs in addition to a different way of using NFS (i think it also uses unionfs and maybe squashfs, not just a plain NFS/cifs mount)... so splitting out the networking related code into a separate function would move towards not having forked code for all of these different network boot methods. at least, that's my hope. live well, vagrant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
