Is there any chance the system-config-netboot* rpms upstream removed from CentOS6 could be provided in extras? The CentOS5 SRPM builds cleanly under CentOS6, and upstream's workaround is insufficient as it only covers diskless clients, not helpful if you need pxeos. https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/nfs-diskless-systems.html

The only thing CentOS removes that Red Hat includes is things that specifically are RHN centric. We don't build those for obvious reasons.

I would like to see those available for CentOS6 if you feel it's a useful addition. Otherwise I'd maintain my own.> The only thing CentOS removes that Red Hat includes is things that > specifically are RHN centric. We don't build those for obvious reasons.Sure, I understand that. But these packages have been removed by upstream. They are no longer included after EL5.
