At 5.1.10-2 the boot=nfs is missing from BOOTPROMPT_OPTS.

Hi Gustavo,
	The messages you quoted are slightly different from those I received, but I still think it's the same issue. 
Instructions for working around this provided by Vagrant Cascadian and
verified:

  # step 1: ensure boot=nfs in BOOTPROMPT_OPTS
  # for example: BOOTPROMPT_OPTS="quiet splash boot=nfs"
  $EDITOR /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/ltsp/update-kernels.conf

  # step 2: run update-kernels script in the chroot
  chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 /usr/share/ltsp/update-kernels

  # step 3: run ltsp-update-kernels on the server
  ltsp-update-kernels

Hi Vagrant,
	I found this bug report while doing a follow-up for:

Have you patched it in Sid? :)
I could find no trace of it in the Changelog.

live well too, Odd.
