FAI - Fully Automatic Installation

Begin: 1999
End: open end
Status: ongoing
Project Homepage: > http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai  
     
Description: > FAI is an automated system to install a Debian GNU/Linux operating system on a Linux Cluster. You can take one or more virgin PCs, turn on the power and after a few minutes Linux is installed, configured and running on the whole cluster, without any interaction necessary. Thus it's a scalable method for installing and updating a Beowulf cluster or a network of workstations unattended with little effort involved.
