Well, it shouldn't necessarily discourage use of tftp, but it
should point to the fact that you ought to take precautions to
make a copy of the kernel accessible in the normal file system
name space after you have booted (e.g. via NFS access).  The
sysctl variable could then be writeable, or you place the
additional restriction on the user that he needs to make (a copy
of) the kernel accessible as /netbsd.
