When you say "redefine the subroutine task_chboot," I take it you mean 
edit the fai source code, right? Or can you redefine a task subroutine 
some other way? I see in the documentation that tasks are defined in 
/usr/lib/fai/subroutines. I think I can edit that to fix my problem. But 
whatever changes I make will be wiped out if I rebuild the nfsroot, right?
