Re: Huge AMD Opteron cluster installed with FAI and Debian amd64



Thank you for your work on this!  Looks quite impressive -- would like
to try it one day.  Fortunately or not, due to Debian's install-once
ease of maintenance, we're still running the same many-times
apt-get-upgraded local disk installation installed on our cluster far
before any of these nicer tools became available.  What a nice
'problem' to have with Debian!

Take care,
