Forming Idea: PiXE Dust
Posted in Free and Open Source Software, Programming and Technical, Ubuntu on May 6th, 2010 by doctormoHave a look at this image:
This is an interesting systems admin project to formalise a way to package PXE booting installations so that they could be set up very easily just by installing a deb package and maybe some tools for unpacking squashfs cds and allow for kickseed/preseed to be configured in an easy way.
I have most of this working with scripts and such and it’s a matter of making it pretty and packaging it up and posting to a PPA to try and get some others to test such a system. The idea on my part is to remove the job of managing netboots at community centers which manage their client and “oem” installs.
Your ideas?
