Wow and *shiver*. This makes 'install this program by running this shell script as root' look secure, currently.

It'll be bloody useful when the RSAification is in place (though I'd always be scared of TFTPing gPXE over the net: TFTP is *way* too easy to MITM-attack and substitute with something quietly hostile).
