[SunRescue] Install without CD

[Joshua D. Boyd]

I've done remote CDROM installs between two PCs.  I'm assuming that things
won't be that different between the Sun and PC.  Just export the CDROM
over NFS, then follow the existing NFS instructions.  Sorry, not quite
step by steps, but might help convert existing step by steps to your
needs.
