Package: replicator (3.1-sarge-1.6)

automate new computer installations in a networked site.

Using a nfs-root filesystem and rsync, replicator allows you to non-interactively install a target computer identical to the model computer. It can handle differences in partitioning and hardware.

Designed for clusters, classrooms and wherever you need identical Debian boxes.

It is REALLY MUCH faster than normal Debian installation method.
