Any tricks to getting a Ubuntu profile for PXE? I'm not clear on
how
well it's supposed to work from the documentation.
Here's what happened when I tried a cobbler import of a standard
ubuntu-9.04-alternate-i386.iso file.

Perhaps some of the folks who worked on this can jump in and help (and
maybe update the Wiki docs better).
All patches to make any of the Ubuntu support (or even repo support)
work better are welcome.
Porting all of the snippets over to work in the same way, and to make
the profile/repo associations work (like they do for yum) I think would
be an invaluable contribution.
Also making sure koan works and finishing out the packaging efforts for
each (see the devel branch and email me if you're interested in details)
