we are currently setting up a cluster using fai.
we finally got to the state where we go through the installation and

the problem then is that *sometimes* the superuser on the newly
installed client has no password; therefore it is impossible to "ssh"
into the system, although the network is up after reboot (e.g. "ping"
from outside sees the client).
Maybe an easy workaround to simplify the testing would be to allow
key-based ssh to the clients and copy the ssh-Key during the
FAI-installation? With that, at least an ssh into the system would work
directly...

true, that should work as well. I will give it a try.

thanks,

MU
