So you're saying in ComOs 3.8, we'll not only be able to netboot on every
boot, but also maintain our configs as ASCII files on our TFTP server such
that we can edit the text config files and just reboot each portmaster to
reconfigure it? :)
Even better would be the sort of "conf net" feature Cisco has, were you
can reconfigure the router from a text file on a tftp server without
rebooting.
