writing a tape, you may add the –s server option to write the actual boot image onto a remote
tape drive. If creating a CDROM or network boot image, you may add the –s server option to
copy the images onto a remote server.
Updating the boot loader on a Linux system or creating or updating an initrd image may only
be done on a local system. Therefore, this command must be run on the client or server
