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

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

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

basic class for rpm system, fedora7 for now

class for xs developers, adds them to wheel group

Currently those are wad, danjared, cjb and holger

class to setup a fedora mirror, updated via cron

class to setup a xs-live-installer, build via cron

class to setup XSs

reside in /var/log/fai and on a logserver, not yet setup
