Fully Automated Installation (FAI) is the package used to install the nodes with disks (the rack nodes).

Installing FAI

apt-get install fai

Create a user called "fai".

You have to edit the three files:

/etc/fai/fai.conf
/etc/fai/sources.list
/etc/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf

In those directories you have to setup items like where the image directory should be located, local servers, apt sources etc.

Then you should run:

fai-setup

And if everything goes as planned, you will get lots of warnings and a message saying that image creation was successful at the end.
