OK. This got me much further, I think. Not that I am booting anything.
But I think it is completing whatever it wanted to do.

I have some dhcp/pxelinux/tftpboot questions:

(First let me say that I use these three tools a lot, so I am familiar
with how I use it. My questions are more what KIWI/LTSP are up to)

1. How do I get the build to NOT clobber any existing /etc/dhcpd.conf
file? It seems that anything that was already there is now gone. This
seems like a bad thing. I wonder what other files were mercilessly
clobbered. I see things like /etc/pam.d/common-session being copied. I
assume that is to the new system? I can see no reason for changing
anything in the host system beyond dhcpd/pxelinux. Or am I missing
something.

2. Should the build have placed a pxelinux image or pxelinux.cfg
somewhere? I do not see them. If the generic pxelinux is used, I am ok.
The contents of the pxelinux.cfg file could be interesting.

3. I would prefer to have the pxelinux and boot stuff in /tftpboot. I
make a directory there for each type of diskless thing I have
(thinstation, gentoo, embedded device FLASH images, whatever). Is it OK
for me to just move things there? Or do I have to use the  settings
in /etc/sysgonfig?

That is enough questions for now. I will have more, I am sure, when I
try to actually boot something.
