I don't follow....all you do is set up a server with NFS sharing a
directory like "images".  Then I simply use wget to download the ISO's to
the NFS server. Then you boot from the first CD and type "linux askmethod"
at the boot prompt.  You go through a few prompts...select the method (you
have choices like NFS, hard drive, CD-ROM...etc)  choose NFS....it asks
for the server name and the directory....example:  10.0.6.101    and 
/images/K12LTSP44/   and that's it.....piece of cake!  No more mounting
manually or anything like that.
