Bug#565696: initramfs-tools: Support for AoE



Yeah, I have some revisions.  I don't want that version going in to an
official repository.  Mostly I wanted to open a dialogue.

I'm using the modified version in order to build an initrd for use in a
KVM virtual server.  I did a write-up:

http://wp.colliertech.org/cj/?p=678

Basically, the idea is to make it possible to do diskless virtual
machines with a minimum of fuss.  I can't think of any easy way to make
all the moving parts fit together.  I'm wrapping up an unrelated project
at work, but I expect I'll have a bit more time to poke at this in the
near future.

Cheers,

C.J.
