Hello,

I'am a debian administrator, and I want to use netboot.

Recently I found documentationd wich explain how to create debian-installer 
from source with SSH and pressed :
http://www.pckult.net/tutoriaux/23-linux/1135-installer-debian-sur-une-machine-distante-avec-pxe-ssh-et-debian-installer
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Remote
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/NetworkConsole
http://www.opensource-blog.com/single-news/article/comment-installer-debian-sur-une-machine-distante-avec-pxe-ssh-et-debian-installer/


I want to create netboot image for many systems mainly AMD64 and i386 for 
ubuntu and debian.

I read the Makefile (from debian-installer sources) and I saw that when you 
compile, it use the architecture of the system (i386 on debian i386 and amd64 
on debian amd64). How can I create a netboot image for amd64 on a i386 system ? 
 How can I do cross compiling ?

Here http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/NetworkConsole, someone use this 
command "fakeroot make build_powerpc_netboot" but it doesn't work for me. I 
also try with the target "build_amd64_netboot" and "build_i386_netboot".

I read the documentation :
http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/doc/internals/
The documentation is very interesting but I didn't find what I need.


Did someone know solutions to create image for differents architecture with a 
minimum of computer to install first. Now, I'am using virtual machines to have 
the debian (or ubuntu) system that I need for the compilation. With this 
procedure, I think I loose time.

How could debian-installer developer compile sources on differents architecture 
? 


Is there someone who knows how to help me ?

Many thanks
