[K12OSN] Crazy OSX thought

Is the concept feasable to make and /opt/ltsp/osx that contains the 
necessary items to boot OSX over LTSP on true thin terminals?

Is it as simple as packaging a running OSX directory structure and placing 
it there, then calling on the proper kernels with something along the lines 
of yaboot?  What is the basic process that goes into making the opt/ltsp 
directories?

I just ask becuase it would add another dimension to LTSP's capabilities and 
further help "sell" the idea.  I know you can netboot OSX but that seems so 
old hat :-)

It would be very cool to run multiple sessions on a booted thin 
simultaneously and be able to hot key between OSX, Fedora, and Terminal 
Services.  Then I could still maintain a completely thin LTSP computing 
environment yet still have operating system diversity at your fingertips.
