[school-discuss] OT: FOG



This post may be off topic for this mailing list, but I hope this may be able to help some people.  

I have created another open-source project that is called FOG, which stands for Free, Open-source Ghost.  

It is a computer imaging solution for Windows XP machines with a single partition (and Vista soon).  It uses PXE to boot the computers and image them with a small Linux OS, no floppy disks, bootable CDs or USB drives needed.  It is all managed via a web interface and is very easy to use and setup.  It even includes a Windows service to change the Windows host name after imaging.  It allows users to image whole groups of computers, like a floor or computer lab and a whole bunch of other features.  The server runs on Fedora 7 and comes with a installation wizard.

If you want to check it out it is completely open-source and free!
