Description: Fully Automatic Installation server package
FAI is a non-interactive system to install, customize and manage
Linux systems and software configurations on computers as well as
virtual machines and chroot environments, from small networks to
large infrastructures and clusters.
.
It's a tool for mass unattended Linux installation. You can take one
or more virgin systems, turn on the power, and after a few minutes,
the systems are installed, and completely configured to your exact
needs, without any interaction necessary.
.
This package is needed for setting up a FAI install server for network
installations, for running the dirinstall in a chroot environment, and
to build installation CD/DVD's and USB sticks.
