I want to set up a cluster using FAI

[alind sharma]

Hi all,
1) Is it compulsary to create a local debian mirror (user guide 8.2.3 ).
Cant it take all the packages from the enteries of sources.list (we already
have all debian iso mounted on another machine which can be accessed by
master and the network routing configuration on master is done such that the
slave network can also access that debian_repo_machine.
2) Also can I get the installation done using infiniband (already networked
)or do I have to connect the machines using ethernet card.

Regards-
