Which info do you need? Would the output of `ls -lR /boot` (on a booting
machine) be sufficient, or even too much? Any selections from dpkg output?

I the meantime: what would I see if I properly assign a nfsroot but
"forget" to set the $FAI_* variables? Typing long command lines into grub
is so failure-prone...
