ok, looking at the lstart script I see it waits until name.ready exists, and
my fs image does not create it. And in the netkit images this is done by the
initialization scripts /etc/init.d/netkit*
Further investigating show that also the capability of copying files from
the machine directory depends on the same scripts.
Now it works very well and I can go on creating some labs. Good.
I suggest to add a note in the netkit-filesystem manual and in the netkit
lstart manual command warning that laboratories do depend on these scripts.
