Most of my issues are outside of the provisioning route.
The s-c-netboot utility does handle a few, other details.

Otherwise, I agree with your commentary for provisioning.



Yes, I am somewhat aware of those. Rather than cleaning up s-c-n, how about making the other bits a seperate project for setup of the stateless images (fedora hosted would be excellent for this), and looking at how we can integrate with Cobbler. That way we can leave s-c-n properly deprecated, as it should be.

A major issue is that s-c-n doesn't scale to datacenter size deployments when dealing with provisioning and integration with provisioning /is/ going to be important, even if it's just making sure the right kernel/initrd rolls out to the right networks and you're not doing installations. More than likely though, you'd be doing /some/ installations, and some statelessy-things (see ovirt -- the host is largely stateless while the guests are traditionally installed over traditional means).
