Is there a reason you need to use jumpstart? Setting up and testing
out jumpstart takes some time. It pays off when you need to maintain
several machines and if need an ability to reinstall them or add new
machines quickly when necessary. If you have just one or a few boxes,
performing a normal upgrade is probably going to be a lot easier.
