Tired of using thumb drives to install Linux on new computers and I wanna install stuff via pxe. Do we have options in the open source world?

Work uses KACE so I’m used to that interface, but its expensive and ass.

    Its named FOG because it is a “free, open-source (Norton) Ghost.” It uses iPXE to netboot a minimal Linux environment that can clone or restore a hard disk image. It includes a web UI for managing machines and disk images, among other things. There is also a client you can install on machines to remotely administer them.

    It is very similar to DRBL/Clonezilla but for a slightly different purpose.
