That last one is here and makes it look a lot simpler than even the Debian install guide did.
Mind you, you probably got this all done last night and I'm needlessly extending this thread
Netboot is bersexy; you'll wonder why you haven't done it sooner. And now that you've done it once, you can just keep those configuration files around and you can do it again, and again, and again.

When I've done VxWorks (RTOS) development, that's pretty much always done with a netboot. (The target is usually an SBC or other embedded kind of thingie (technical term) which often doesn't have significant peripherals to boot from.) And in that world, it's killer slick for development -- rebuild the kernel or system on the host, have the target pre-configured to netboot from the host, reset the target, voila! (BTW, from that same world, net-debug is also pretty cool.)
See, somebody else was indeed lurking on this discussion. :-)
