Hello

Current releng images are enabled to be used as self-PXE-server 
enviroment with:

dnsmasq: For DHCP and TFTP
nbd: for NBD
nfs-utils: for NFS

I like to add (They do not carry any extra dependency)

Name           : vsftpd
Installed Size : 216.00 K
Name           : darkhttpd
Installed Size :  36.00 K

With these two tiny packages we will cover all protocols supported by 
archiso at this moment. The wiki page[#1] describe how to use 
live-enviroment to do this tasks.
This also makes my life much easier when I want to test these things :)

Any objections? Thanks.
