I'm getting a similar message from "statelessGenPXEConfig.py":
"
[root at fsix-Server /]# python /usr/share/stateless/statelessGenPXEConfig.py
Unable to get NFS location of DemoSystem snapshot DemoSystem-1
"

Here's my /etc/exports:
"
/home/users *(rw,async)
/src/stateless/snapshots *(rw,async)
"

Does anyone know how the NFS location is supposed to be set up?  Is 
there any more documentation than the Tutorial and the source ( I don't 
speak python very well )?

I could configure it by hand, but I'm sure I would end up with a 
read-only system that wouldn't function like stateless was designed to 
run (ie, it would be crippled, and act very "read-only-ish").  I get the 
impression that Stateless Linux is supposed to look and act as though it 
were a locally installed fully functional Fedora installation.  I'm  
wondering what configuration in the pxelinux.cfg/ folder facillitates this.


Thanks!
