no kernel installed on client so it refuses booting ... a little more

[Gerald Houart]

thanks ... it works finally !

in fact it is so that i have done but placing "do_initrd = Yes" in
fai/files/kernel-img.conf/MYCLASS

what i found strange was that simply putting "simple" example and
modifying network configuration tu suite mine was not working ... no
kernel was installed on clients so they won't boot after installation.

now i will enjoy fully FAI :)
