Hi,
Is it possible to fully automate the installation of a
customised linux
OS using FAI.I'm planing to do the installation in a Virtual machine
using
the ISO image of the OS.If possible please mention a reference to do
so.
I don't personally use FAI to install virtual machines, although I
suppose it depends on which virtualisation system you're using. We
use VMware, and although I can install these using FAI, it's faster
and simpler to use the templating mechanism that ESX has. FAI's great
strength for me is the ability to deal with divergent hardware, and of
course that isn't an issue with virtual machines.
