Just as an update, I was talking with Jereon van Meeuwen and Jonathan Steffan
on #cobbler yesterday, and we bounced around a few ideas.
One idea is a LiveCD that invokes koan. This would allow for PXEing in
environments that have a cobbler server, but can't have a PXE server. They
have an early test build, though it has some trouble detecting hard drives
(apparently due to something with libata). As this also could be
accomplished with a hacked up syslinux PXE boot image and a standard
/tftpboot tree, there may be other ways to accomplish this worth exploring.
Another idea is importing a cobbler profile and making a (non-networked)
installable Live CD out of it -- pulling the needed packages from the various
local cobbler repos onto the CD.
This would be extremely useful to us. +100 :-)
