That's why I did split out the package "fai-client". Install it to a
"deboostrapt" system, point fai.conf to your configuration space and run
fai-update-system. This will do every step of a fai installation except
partitioning (and base unpacking). After running, your system will look like
a system installed with your FAI configuration (except for the partion
layout, of course).
