NetBoot Installation Move

I moved the NetBoot portion of the documentation, as it's part of isntallation instructions. The pre-installation notes were intended for README-like things, not so much actual procedure.

Screen Rotation

I followed your guide to create the screen rotation scripts/events, and after acpi force-reload and restart it works just fine. But when I reboot the machine, I have to reload and restart acpi again, otherwise it won't work.

rotate script

for me in order to get it working i have to modify
x41tsdown.sh 

#!/bin/sh
XUSER=`who | grep ' :0' | cut -d ' ' -f 1`
 if test -n "$XUSER"; then
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -o right"
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xsetwacom set "stylus" Rotate CW"
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xsetwacom set "cursor" Rotate CW"
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xsetwacom set "eraser" Rotate CW"
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xvkbd&"
    sleep 2
 fi

x41tsup.sh 

#!/bin/sh
su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -omright"
XUSER=`who | grep ' :0' | cut -d ' ' -f 1`
 if test -n "$XUSER"; then
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -o normal"
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xsetwacom set "stylus" Rotate NONE"
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xsetwacom set "cursor" Rotate NONE"
    su - $XUSER -c "DISPLAY=:0 xsetwacom set "eraser" Rotate NONE"
    sleep 2
 fi
killall xvkbd
