This is true if you use --my-modules with si_prepareclient... otherwise
all the modules will be included in the initrd and you are able to use
the kernel+initrd.img generated on the golden client (in
/etc/systemimager/boot) to install machines with heterogeneous hardware.

Regarding the documentation we're trying to update all the stuff... for
the website please always refer to http://wiki.systemimager.org, this is
the only maintened site.
