Bug#779922: Quickfix for netboot

Thanks Hans, that someone was me :-)
Same issue with PXE booting for the AMD64 architecture.
A few more details for noobs:
Assuming you have a running install of Jessie for the architecture you
wish to boot up via TFTP, check the version:
$ dpkg -l | grep linux-image
ii linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64 3.16.7-ckt7-1 amd64
Linux 3.16 for 64-bit PCs
Have a look in the /boot dir and copy the kernel image over the kernel
image in the directory tree of your TFTP service. Target is probably
something like /srv/tftp/path/to/image
$ ls -l /boot
- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3109296 Mar 1 20:43 vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64
In the PXE boot directory structure the kernel image was just called
"linux", so rename the original to "linux.old" and rename
"vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64" to "linux".
Start the PXE installation once more, and hopefully this time you get
further than the partitioning stage.
Cheers!
