Ayup, I've been playing with it for about 2 or 3 months now, on and 
off.  The documentation, IMO, leaves a lot to be desired, but between 
that and the mailing list, you should be able to muddle through.

Btw, in the case of FAI, the phrase "Use the source" comes into play 
more so than I realized at first.  99% of FAI's flexibility comes 
from shell and perl functions which are completely undocumented 
anywhere but in the source itself.  Definitely take a look at the 
example class/*, scripts/*, and files/etc/* files.

The DHCP config should be pretty straightforward, however, I can 
shoot you the one I'm using if you'd like.
