What about when you build on x86 for a different platform then chroot
is not an option at all. That's the reason we added that to the book.

For that I would suggest a livecd. How exotic must we get?

Would be great, but the RaQ series and few other designs don't have the ability to boot from a cdrom.That's why I'm persuing a method that is a little easier for people to work with on all systems. NFS root booting.

http://svn.jg555.com/viewcvs.cgi/?root=hints look at netboot.txt file

So far I got it work on the following configurations

x86 - grub
raq2 - standard firmware
raq2 - colo - chainloading
raq3 - colbalt-rom firmware from sourceforge

That's all I have here to test, anyone else is willing to help. I can get testing done on Sparc and PPC.
