Yes. You have to copy your etch nfsroot, mirror (created by
fai-mirror) and config space to a sarge system where you can use
fai-cd to build an ISO image. I'm thinking of creating a sarge
chroot tarball so people can use this chroot on etch to build the
fai-cd.


In the future (but after the etch release) fai-cd will use
initramfs-tools instead of mkinitrd-cd. You can also have a look at
holgers fai cd using live-package technique.
