Really well written.  I got confused by one section in the document.
The section "Multiple NICs and PXE Installation" talks about
modifying " pxelinux.cfg/* config files".  This is during installation.
I have a boot CD and files to be pulled off the net.  Neither of
these are easy to update.  The context around the section did not
enlighten me. A little more detail on where these files
should be found would be helpful.
