[Nottingham] Installing distros via the WWW

[Joshua Lock]

Morning list,

During Paul's great talk last night (thanks Paul!), Martin L asked  
how long it will be until we can install Ubuntu by clicking a link a  
web page.
I then (foolishly) opened my mouth stating that similar research was  
already being done. I was wrong but the work that has been done is  
similar. It enables users to create a custom netinstall boot image  
using a web interface and download an ISO of said image.

I don't think it's quite as advanced as Martin L's dream but it's a  
step in the right direction surely???

Best,

Josh
