What's the proper way to chain through a netboot osimage? I've created 
an image (genimage/packimage) that does BIOS updates and configs and it 
works great. I just can't seem to chain out of it. I copied the 
"nextdestiny" scripts into my new netboot image and they seem to run 
without error.

Upon discovery, I want xCAT to do nodediscover, bmcsetup, boot to my 
biossetup profile, and then do a full disk install of centos.

I have a group entry in the chain table:
"metal",,,"runcmd=bmcsetup,osimage=centos5.6-x86_64-netboot-biossetup,install=centos5-x86_64-metal","nodediscover",,


All of the individual parts work. I can nodeset it to runcmd=bmcsetup 
and it does chain through to biossetup, but then it gets stuck. xcatd 
never changes the boot state again. What's the magic to get xcatd to 
nodeset to install=centos5-x86_64-metal?
