Automated deployment

[Teldar]

Hello world,

I'm looking for automated deployment of raspberry with something like PXE.

I've a cluster of ~100 PI in a datacenter and I'm looking for installing/reinstalling them from home.

Any idea ?

Thanks

The Raspberry Pi does not have a BIOS like a PC.

fyi this is the RPi boot up sequence

I belive the Compute Module is different though.....

Maybe PiNET could help - see recent blog

Yeah , a fork or variant of PiNet seems to be the best solution. The only other thing i can think of is u-boot (which supports TFTP) , but read this :

A bit low tech, but you could always just clone 100 sd cards and shove them in as necessary.
