Hello, While OSCAR does not try to have different nodes, you can easily customize each one of them when they are installed.
You can make two things : having one image for each kind of node you want to have (oc3, ethernet, etc.). Then you can have several nodes linked to those images. You can also personalize the the auto-install scripts in : /var/lib/systemimager/scripts By default, all OSCAR nodes linked to a given image point to the same master script but you can easily have personalized scripts for every node if you want/need so. However, you will be loosing the interest (IMHO) of an image based management system... Ben * todd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [04-10-04 13:59]: > Oscar seems very impressive.
