Hi Rolf

Due to limitations on how the install media are created at the this is 
not possible. You would have to develop a media that can do that. Some 
work has been done to allow supplying the media via NFS after booting 
the kernel but it is undocumented and very beta.

Contributions welcome. I can also help getting you started on that 
development effort.

Greetings
Till
