as i said in another mail, once you have the app selection ready and
working its only a matter of copying the .img file around ... the chroot
itself only exists for maintenance (or for people who insist on using
nfs indeed)
in any case it would be very helpful to get a list with all breakage
that shows up if yu try to run ubuntu-desktop on a fat client setup so i
could work it down to have all of them fixed at some point :)
