This is not a bug in this package. I also don't understand how it's a bug in the netboot image - it is not supposed to include most storage drivers, but will download them as needed. Bear in mind that the netboot kernel and initrd need to exactly match the kernel version in the archive, so the netboot files for 7.4 and earlier will no longer work.
