Do you perhaps run: fai-chboot -IFv specialhosts*, (re)boot all the

fai-chboot -ov specialhosts* but SOMETHING THAT I DO NOT KNOW makes the
install clients reboot automatically?
Thank you.
I hate to say it, but RTFM. For automatic reboots:
http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/fai-guide/ch-instprocess.html#s-ireboot
FAI renames the PXE configs to <hash>.disable, so they don't PXE boot
the next go-around.
If each machine is identical, expect identical behavior. If they differ
in chipsets, hardware, etc, you need to make sure all the necessary
drivers/modules are present in intird/nfsroot/etc.

I had already read this:
5.9 Reboot the new installed system
At last the system is automatically rebooted if "reboot" was added to
FAI_FLAGS. Normally this should boot the new installed system from its
second boot device, the local hard disk. To skip booting from network
card, you can use the command fai-chboot(8) to enable localboot.
But it is not very clear (Fai-guide should be improved?).
Where am I supposed to add reboot FAI_FLAGS?
The guide says something about FAI_FLAGS at Bootp daemon but I use dhcp.
So I re-ask my question. What's the best way for modiying FAI_FLAGS?
Thank you.

Please read the guide, all the questions you've asked so far are in
there. You can even search the guide from
