	   netboot-assistant/di-sources.list. The image will  be  installed/extracted  in  the	default  location  (declared  in  /etc/di-netboot-
	   assistant/di-netboot-assistant.conf).

       purge
	   purge will remove a previously installed d-i netboot image, according to the image name specified.

OPTIONS

       rebuild-menu
	   rebuild-menu  will  rebuild the to level menu. It's only usefull if you have installed some client images that have such top level menu
	   (like i386, amd64 and ia64). This command takes no argument.

       -h, --help Print this message and exit

       -v, --version

	      /etc/di-netboot-assistant/di-sources.list.  The architecture you can use for purge action in one of those you previously installed !
	      The usable architectures can be listed by leaving --arch= empty. The default architecture is the current one (as reported by  dpkg's
	      APT::Architecture).

       --verbose
	      Verbose messages

       --offline
	      Don't download the file (simply re-extract and build menu)
