I think NILO goals are not to bootstrap kernels, but to provide a general
API for network access before the operating system is started. Then, it
will be possible to write a FreeBSD kernel loader on top of this API.

So the response could be : NILO will make possible to write a FreeBSD
network bootstrap.

It would be nice to have an 'official' answer from someone at NILO.
