FAI

Fully Automatic Installation

What is FAI?

 * 1) FAI is an automated system to install Linux
 * 2) FAI does everything a system administrator has to do, before a user can log into a brand new compiter
 * 3) A set of scripts and config files for a fully automated installation
 * 4) It can install and configure the whole OS and all software packages

FAI is an automated installation tool to install or deploy Debian GNU/Linux and similar distributions on a Linux Cluster or a bunch of different hosts. It's similar but more flexible than other tools like kickstart for RedHat, autoyast and alice for SuSE or Jumpstart for SUN Solaris.
