al@14590 1 DRBL (Diskless Remote Boot in Linux) is free software, open source solution
al@14590 2 to managing the deployment of the GNU/Linux operating system across many
al@14590 3 clients. Imagine the time required to install GNU/Linux on 40, 30, or even 10
al@14590 4 client machines individually! DRBL allows for the configuration all of your
al@14590 5 client computers by installing just one server (remember, not just any virtual
al@14590 6 private server) machine.
al@14590 7
al@14590 8 DRBL provides a diskless or systemless environment for client machines. It works
al@14590 9 on Debian, Ubuntu, Red Hat, Fedora, CentOS and SuSE. DRBL uses distributed
al@14590 10 hardware resources and makes it possible for clients to fully access local
al@14590 11 hardware. It also includes Clonezilla, a partitioning and disk cloning utility
al@14590 12 similar to Symantec Ghost®.
al@14590 13
al@14590 14 The features of DRBL:
al@14590 15 * Peacefully coexists with other OS
al@14590 16 * Simply install DRBL on a single server and all your clients are taken care of
al@14590 17 * Save on hardware, budget, and maintenance fees
