I use sshfs for chroot development. I have a meego chroot on my big desktop, do all edits and builds there, then to install on to the target hardware is do:
INSTALL_ROOT=/target-sshfs make install It is a shorter development loop than to build the rpm, copy that over and install it.

Now 'df' reports: gnulem: 453G 408G 23G 95% /media/gnulem-npm And the remote system is mounted as if locally, without needing to setup NFS -- just needs SSHD running. Obviously not as fast or performant given the encrypt/decrypt invoked by SSH, but at least it's as secure as SSH and can be further secured by using public/private keypairs in SSH.
