Hi Ebbe, if you happen to be a Debian user, I happen to have just finished setting up an Instant Boot Server system for that OS. It is based on a debootstrapped chroot environment. It sets up all the difficult DHCP/TFTP/PXE stuff automatically based on a quite simple config file, and one of the supported boot methods is called "installer", after "Give me the Debian Installer". It also has support for mounting an NFS root, by the way.
Contact me off-list if you'd like to try out a copy. I haven't published it yet because it still needs a Quickstart Guide, which I'll happily generate dynamically, as it were..;).
