installupdate using NFS?

When performing a 4.0D to 4.0F update today I mistakenly mistyped the
installupdate command and it responded with its usage summary. This
including an option I'd never heard about:

installupdate -i server:exported_mount_point # from NFS remote file system

is this really possible (I guess I could try it and see)? It's not
mentioned in the installupdate man page, or the Tru64 installation
manual, but could be handier than carrying around a CD drive to a bunch
of old DEC3000 systems, as I don't use RIS.
