Baremetal1 uses PING(Partimage Is Not Ghost) to do image provisioning, now = I am working on designing baremetal2 which would support kickstart installa= tion and security group(for Linux). I am also choosing a better PXE provisioning software to replace PING, now = Razor comes into my mind http://nickapedia.com/2012/05/21/lex-parsimoniae-c= loud-provisioning-with-a-razor/. Any thoughts are welcome.
