Hi Dan,

I had the idea to load the modules by nfs with only initrd.lrp on the
boot-disk. For this you have to increase the size of the initrd-filesystem,
add some modules to /boot/lib, change /boot/etc/modules, add some binaries
to /sbin, some libraries to /lib, start-stop-scripts in /etc/init.d ...

In syslinux.cfg you change the PKG-PATH to
your.server:/path/to/your/lrp-files. 
You add some calls in linuxrc to establish networking and nfs-client before the
boot-directory is mounted, and alter the mount-command, so that it considers
the part after the ":".

All this work is done. But grsec kills the portmap immediately after beeing
called. So I have to recompile the kernel, but I am shure that this will
work one fine day:-)
