Automate everything. Write a shell script that calls fai-make-nfsroot
and then the commands for adjusting your nfsroot or use
the nfsroot hooks defined with NFSROOT_HOOKS. See man nfsroot.conf for
more info.

Yes and no. You can use the fai-monitor for that or the client logs
into the install server via ssh to call fai-chboot. The later is the default.

What do you mean by "garbled". It works very well for me.
