Small improvement for make-fai-nfsroot

[Christopher Huhn]

Hi FAIarians,

I had small problems with make-fai-nfsroot and hooks: the script tried
to run backup files (*~) as well as subdirectories beneath my
$NFSROOT_HOOKS and failed on the first error because of running with
"set -e". This is not the behavior I intended.

My quick hack solution is to delegate running hook scripts to run-parts
(from the debianutils package). So only executable files matching a
given pattern will be executed. The only drawback (?) is that scripts
run in a separate process, so environment variables they use must be
exported (in my case that's only $NFSROOT and $NFSROOT_HOOKS).

P.S.: "New partition tool setup-storage
<http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/doc/man/fai-setup.html> added"
on the FAI homepage links to the man page of fai-setup. I suspect it
should be the setup-storage man page instead.
