All, Forgive me if this has been addressed recently, I haven't been monitoring the mailing list very closely. A few months ago there was quite a bit of discussion about support for windows XP (via ris-linux) and other non-linux operating systems (via cloning). I believe the decision was made to favor support of cloning over other options. Has any progress been made on this front? I was going to suggest looking at including "g4l" (ghost for linux - http://sourceforge.net/projects/g4l/) as the cloning option. It seems that this would be very easy to get working since it supports ftp access to the images and already has a bootable linux image for the cloning tool itself. I would think all that would be needed is an option to load this bootable image though the current pxe/bootiso options and possibly add some lipstick to have a clean method of selecting the image to be used or created on the cobbler server.
Anyway, maybe this discussion has moved to the development mailing list, but I was just hoping for an update. Thanks. -Jared
