I would like the user on the thin client box to be able to make
adjustments to lilo.conf have them stick. The boxes call nfsroot mount
from lilo to connect to the server. Unfortunately the nfs server IP
needs to be hard coded into the kernel boot parameter specified in
lilo.conf thus if the nfs server ip changes, the user needs to adjust
the value in lilo.conf.

The root of the directory "custom" gets copied over the root filesystem, so if you have an entry named etc/passwd in your cusotm file, it will get copied to /etc on your target.
