Why cfengine and not debconf? It seems to me that debconf is a natural for solving these problems. In fact, there's no reason why dbootstrap couldn't ultimately be replaced by a debconf script, leading to a single system for automated (with conf file, network db, whatever) or manual installation. In fact, right now I'm looking at debconf'ifying base configuration. > The home page for FAI is > > http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/ Cool. I see you're using base2_1.tgz. Have you looked at base2_2.tgz? Let us know if you want to make any effort in merging your efforts with the boot-floppies effort. -- .....Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
