How to call FAI_ACTION install from a hook?

[Oliver Osburg]

Hi Andre,

did you take a look at pxemenu? (https://subtrac.sara.nl/oss/pxeconfig/browser/trunk/README-pxemenu just one of the first hits in google...) With pxemenu you should be able to set FAI_ACTION to any value you like.

regards,

Oliver
