I don't think it was his intention to be smug.  You're reading too
much into his words.

In any case, it's my understanding that setting up the revo to do a
diskless netboot is not sufficiently different than setting up any
other PC to do a diskless pxe boot to warrant any special
documentation specific to the revo.
