New submitter mathiasfriman writes: SverigeLinux (SwedenLinux in Swedish) is a project financed by the Swedish Internet Fund that is developing a Linux deployment system for the public sector. It is based on DebianLAN and has just released its first public early alpha version. This 7 minute video shows how you can deploy up to 100 workstations with minimal Linux knowledge in under an hour, complete with DHCP, DNS and user data in LDAP, logins using Kerberos and centralized storage. The project has a home on GitHub and is looking for testers and developers. Don't worry, no Björgen Kjörgen; it's all in English.

Re:I like imaging systems like this, but... by mathiasfriman · 2015-04-11 19:43 · Score: 5, Informative

First, this is not an imaging system, it's an install system which installs mainly Debian based distributions, based on Fully Automatic Installation (fai-project.org). FAI in turn is possible to use with multi-distribution capabilities to install CentOS, Scientific Linux and a few more. As a final twist, this project will also incorporate the possibility to install FOG servers but it is not our primary focus right now.
