fai-setup requires specific linux-image version in NFSROOT

[Darryl]

Binary package hint: fai-server

In the freshly installed fai-server package, the /etc/fai/NFSROOT file lists:

PACKAGES aptitude i386
...
linux-image

When you run fai-setup, there is an error 'linux image is a virtual package provided by linux-image-2.6.32-5-686, ... (and a lot of other packages)

The script fails bacause there is no kernel installed. You have to edit the NFSROOT file to point to one of the specific package names ('linux-image-2.6.32-5-686'). It would be better to be able to leave it at the generic name and have the script pick up the latest version.
