------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there are solution with my problem?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And my other question.
Can i setup fai server to install centos on the client. Because i want
my server (ubuntu 8.04) will be the installation server to install
ubuntu 9.04 and centos 5.3
The simple output that i want is : When i turn on my client computer, it
will be menu to choose what i want to install. And fai-server will
perform installation with the distribution that i choice
Is that possible to install on client computer like that?
