If you have a tarbal for these "packages", then use the command ftar
to install them onto the new system.

Nice! Please fill out the questionnaire /usr/share/doc/fai/QUESTIONNAIRE
and send it to me after your cluster is up and running. Maybe you like
to add a few pictures or create a web page of you cluster.
