The Linux Utility for cluster Installation (LUI) is an open source utility for installing Linux workstations remotely, over an ethernet network. What distinguishes LUI is that it is "resource based". LUI provides tools to manage installation resources on the server, that can be allocated and applied to installing clients, allowing users to select just which resources are right for each client. Examples of resources supported in LUI 1.1 are the the linux kernel and associated system map, the disk partition table, RPMs, user exits, and local and remote (NFS) file systems. LUI supports both the BOOTP protocol for diskette based client installation, as well as true network installation, using DHCP and PXE.
