    Hi there, there is a Debian based web-kiosk distro for this : webconverger It's very simple to use

    Nobody wants to try? Some more reporting and remarks after several months of using Pulse2 : - I have encountered some cases (quite rare) with some computer models, where the network card was not being recognized when saving/restoring an image (due to the kernel version used in the pxe boot). No big deal, just add another well supported network card and adjust the GRUB line by adding the keyword: revoeth1 (will tell the kernel to use the eth1 interface) - the underlying partition saving/restoring tool is Partclone. - No mbr/partition tables problems encountered (cloned Windows XP and Vista machines, but Seven should work too) - still haven't tested multicast cloning nor package deployment, yet. So I can't tell. Maybe somebody could give it a try

    well, at least it works when FOG failed for me (mbr/partition problems when cloning)

    Yes, the workstation name can be set automatically. joining a domain could be done by adding a custom post-install script I guess.

    I'm currently testing it, so far so good! Setting up the server is a bit more work than FOG (but if you follow the installation guide to the letter it's all good) My tests with the imaging module have been successful (WinXP clients. Did not encounter any MBR ou partition problems unlike with FOG's partimage clone mode) and it's quite fast (my network being the bottleneck). Haven't tried multicast cloning yet.

    Hi everybody Mandriva Pulse 2 1.3.0 is out, and now allows disk imaging. The principle is quite similiar to CloneZilla and FOG Everything is controlled using a clean web interface. You might want to give it a try (it's a free and open-source product) I think the product is of great quality and needs to be advertised http://pulse2.mandriva.org
