Hello, it isn't a problem of ssh but a problem of boot. Because; i have
rebooted the client with FAI_ACTION=install and
the problem persists. The client screen is black and the  last messages it
displays before a white horizontal cursor are:

Flow control: RX/TX
  RPC:UDP registered Transport module
  RPC:TCP registered Transport module
--

 i am afraid it's called a problem of devices (drivers). My /var/log/syslog
is:
