With fai, you configure your updated, armored, well working machine before the installation. In case of a disaster, you simply reinstall without any interaction. Fai is even capable, to leave a partition untouched. Of course, variable data needs to be backed up as usual, but you can easily integrate a class RESTORE into fai, which will restore your data right back to the correct place. Crashed machines will be back at work within 20 minutes :) regards, Andreas [1] http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/
