I have experience with that. It's a very flexible framework for
automating installations. Theoretically it might work with any distro,
but it's developed on Debian, tailored to Debian, incorporates the
Debian arro^H^H^Hattitude, and in practice doesn't work on anything
else. And "flexible" equals "humangeous amounts of time required to set
anything going". My advice: stay clear unless you have *way* more than 5
Debian boxes to install; for non-Debian, forget you heard about it. All
distros have their own mechanisms anyway, e.g. always had, RH did, dunno
about others but expect so.
