There are an estimated 200-300 Linux desktop users at SLAC. This project aims to provide a basic managed and maintained building block desktop from which users may customize to their specific needs. At this writing, either Ubuntu or CentOS are available options. This is very much a work in progress....
To-Do
- consider should the user have the netboot file remain active and have the user manually remove the link that makes it active with
echo "get Kickstart_end" | /usr/bin/tftp lnxpapaor do this for them automatically after the first build. Make this an attribute for the node build ? Consider this for ubuntu too - And ubuntu and kickstart are not great together, unless this is very, very dated https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KickstartCompatibility
