at stage 1, the diskless host sends out a bootp/dhcp request, the dhcpd 
servers sends
back some packets, and pxeloader gets tftp'ed.

i modified libstand/bootp.c to place all the tags - that dhcp provides - in 
the kernel
environmet, so that they can be used later - eg in rc.diskless1.

what if:
        we place the rc.conf[.local] there?
        in the dhcpd.conf:
                option rc-conf "132.65.16.100:/d/4/etc/rc.conf"
and so - automagicaly -
        `kenv rc.conf.diskless_root_readonly`
or
        kenv | grep rc.conf | sed 's/rc.conf.//' > rc.conf

i'll work now on the 'automagicaly' part :-)
