stick/compactflash card and an nfs share.
That way one can also boot non-pxe systems without any local disk.

Looking at the size, the mips initrd.gz is 400kB smaller and I see no
reason for that. Either mklibs is still broken on mips, or images are
generated with the old buggy mklibs.
I disabled mklibs library reduction on mips/mipsel for now

usb stick / compact flash card (e.g. ide to compact flash converter)

Rewording the original wish:
* It would be nice if one could install on a NFS share.
* It would be nice if the installer writes boot stuff to an USB device
and that the installed system (booted from USB disk) uses a NFS share.
That way one can also boot non-pxe systems without any local disk.
