Here's there is the content of the file /usr/lib/fai/nfsroot/etc/fai/fai.conf:



# $Id: fai.conf,v 1.86 2005/05/19 09:28:33 lange Exp $

# /etc/fai/fai.conf -- configuration for FAI (Fully Automatic Installation)

# installserver must be the name seen by the install clients
installserver=nodo00
# the name of the Debian mirror, this is also hardcoded in /etc/fai/sources.list
mirrorhost=nodo00

# Don't use the variable FAI_SOURCES_LIST any more.
# Instead use /etc/fai/sources.list

# Access to Debian mirror via NFS mounted directory
# If FAI_DEBMIRROR is defined, install clients mount it to $MNTPOINT
#FAI_DEBMIRROR=$mirrorhost:/files/scratch/debmirror/debian/pool/main
#FAI_DEBMIRROR=$mirrorhost:/files/scratch/debmirror/debian/.temp/dists/sarge
#FAI_DEBMIRROR=$mirrorhost:/files/scratch/debmirror/debian
FAI_DEBMIRROR=/files/scratch/debmirror/debian
#FAI_DEBMIRROR=ftp://freedom.dicea.unifi.it/ftp/pub/linux/debian/

# if your install server has multiple ethernet device, use this one to
# determine its hostname. Default eth0. Set to the interface to which
# the Beowulf clients are connected.
SERVERINTERFACE=eth0

# LOGUSER: an account on the install server which saves all log-files
# and which can change the kernel that is booted via network.
# Configure .rhosts for this account and PAM, so that root can log in
# from all install clients without password. This account should have
# write permissions for /boot/fai. For example, you can use write
# permissions for the group linuxadm. chgrp linuxadm /boot/fai;chmod
# g+w /boot/fai. If the variable is undefined, this feature is disabled.
# Define it, to enable it, eg. LOGUSER=fai
LOGUSER=tom2
# use ssh or rsh for copying log files to user fai and for logging in
# from install clients to install server
FAI_REMOTESH=ssh
FAI_REMOTECP=scp

# set protocol type for saving logs, default is rcp/scp. Set to ftp if desired.
FAI_LOGPROTO=
# Name of log-server. If undefined, the install server will be used.
LOGSERVER=
# writable directory on remote server, when using FTP protocol
LOGREMOTEDIR="upload"
# password for login to log server, when using FTP protocol
LOGPASSWD=

# the configuration space on the install server
FAI_CONFIGDIR=/usr/local/share/fai
# the location of the config space, as seen by the install client
# it can also be overwritten with T170 via BOOTP
FAI_LOCATION=$installserver:$FAI_CONFIGDIR

# the following variables are read only for most users

# mount point where the mirror will be mounted
MNTPOINT=/mnt2

# directory on the install server where the nfsroot for FAI is
# created, approx size: 160MB, also defined in bootptab or dhcp.conf
NFSROOT=/usr/lib/fai/nfsroot

# the local configuration directory on the install client
FAI=/fai

# the type of operating system (linux, sunos)
OS_TYPE=`uname -s |  tr /A-Z/ /a-z/`


I'll check /usr/share/fai/subroutines, thank you.
