    Mmm.  Well, I suppose, but it isn't going to be any less complex because
    rarp does not support all the require features natively.  BOOTP is a very 
    simple protocol.  You can't get much simpler and the kernel root fs
    portion of the implementation is going to wind up being the same anyway.
