like a pxe rom). I use this for bare metal and vms, and two scripts
which can run post boot so I use them on vps distributed image as well.
-Features people may find useful: installs encrypted trisquel belenos, ,
-debian jessie, debian stretch, ubuntu 16.04, and arch (havne't done
-recently, probably a bit broken), in a multi-boot setup using multiple
-subvolumes of a single btrfs filesystem. Utilizes multiple disks, with
-scripts to automatically decrypt on intentional reboots, but not after
-shutdown or power loss.

The partititioning and filesystem script is at
-fai/config/hooks/partition.DEFAULT. Other debian based distros at least
-as new as ubuntu 14.04 should work fine, and I'm planning to add Fedora
-support. Disks are grouped as ssd or hdd and raided in raid 1 or raid 0
-per configuration. The base partitions are divided into boot, swap, and
-root, (only boot is unencrypted). There are scripts to resize those
-partitions post-provision and while the system is running.

People who use fai may find these things as useful examples: it uses
dnsmasq (on a openwrt machine) for dhcp instead of the isc
faiserver-revm # using pxe & preseed, create a vm which is a fai server
faiserver-uninstall # uninstall fai-server
faiserver-setup # install fai-server on the current machine
-myfai-chboot # setup fai tftp and nfs. useful with pxe-kexec
-pxe-server # disable/enable pxe dhcp, tfp, and nfs
+myfai-chboot # setup fai tftp and nfs. useful for doing pxe-kexec
+pxe-server # disable/enable pxe dhcp, tfp, and nfs. calls myfai-chboot
wrt-setup-remote # setup my router in general: dhcp, dns, etc.
License stuff:
The license for the project is GPLv2 or later, mostly because fai is and
-I periodically rebase off their example config, which contains small
+I periodically merge the upstream example config, which contains small
scripts. Also, there is a modified encrypt.upstream, which is from the
cryptsetup package in arch, which is under the same license.
