Hey,

Nice. I had considered using HTTP, but didn't want to deviate from the
"recommended" approach. Well. Up until I decided to completely the
approach. ;)

That is also a much smaller initrd!

The main reason I changed was to be able to configure the disk layout,
the much faster build was a very pleasant side effect.

Cheers,
Andrew
