Hi Stephen,
If you wouldn't mind posting your script or emailing it to me, I'd
like to have a look at it.
Cheers, Michael

I then have my build script write out a new EXPORTS file mapping to "/live/image/debian-live"...on boot up of my LivePXE/TFP/NFS image, I have a script which runs to configure the PXE/TFTP server. I have added a line to the ".bash_profile" file stating: sudo /usr/bin/myscript.sh, this script asks for IP information for the server sets a static IP address and then writes a proper menu.cfg for the TFTPBoot server.
