get fai

If you install a schoolserver with the live-installer, fai is already installed.

To create a fai-client.rpm on a debian system:

svn co svn://svn.debian.org/svn/fai/people/h01ger/softupdate-git-rpm fai
cd fai
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
cd ..
fakeroot alien -r fai-client*deb

get fai configspace

git clone git://dev.laptop.org/projects/fai-config

Then have a look at fai-config/class/40-olpc-classes and at the fai-config/packages/ and fai-config/scripts/

run fai

run "fai -N softupdate" as root, logs in /var/log/fai/

fai classes

each system can belong to many classes. each class defines packages which get installed for that class, scripts that get run and other stuff.
