For the moment it doesn't make sense to test, because BSDInstaller  
won't totally install a whole system.  NetBoot Server is up and  
running and you can start BSDInstaller from the "second" machine  
booted via PXE. You can also start the installation, but I still get  
a lua-error when it tries to copy all files from the source to the  
harddisk. So at the moment my ISO can be seen as broken-alpha-state. :-)

Hopefully I get these things fixed the next days, I am working  
fulltime on the project. If you want, clearly you can have a look at  
the source files. It's not that I want to hide is, it's only that I  
know it is still broken beside the bugs.

Cheers
   Markus
