So in essence, it is:


# rpm --root / -q foobar-r foobar-u
/etc/fluff
/usr/fluff

# rpm --root /tftpboot/linux -q foobar-r foobar-u
/etc/fluff
foobar-u not installed

and the netboot client mounts certain directories (such as /usr and 
/opt) over nfs. Or in case you need to make local modifications, bind 
mount /usr to /tftpboot/linux/usr while chrooted. This is an advantage 
over installing foobar-u in /tftpboot/linux too. It saves space.
