http://xs-dev.laptop.org/xs-live-installer/200708231741-XS.iso

is the latest tested image, which automatically installs a schoolserver 
prototype.

After reboot and login as root (passwd is still "faifai"), you can run "fai -N 
softupdate" to setup the ipv4 mesh gateway functionality. (I tried to make it 
run in anacondas %post -install, but it didnt work yet.)

This build uses the testing xs repository and the xs-* rpms and kernel 2.6.22.
The ipv4 gateway code assumes that there is a uplink on eth0, so that the 
marvel device is eth1/msh0. The nat-ed network on msh0 is 192.168.0.0

The code to bring up the gateway is 
in /fai-config/scripts/SCHOOLSERVER/30-dhcpd+named - and is not the proper 
way to configure the network in fedora ;-) 

The config files for dhcpd and named are 
in /fai-config/files/etc/$configfile/SCHOOLSERVER.

Get the fai configspace with " git clone 
git://dev.laptop.org/projects/fai-config" - a brief introduction for FAI is 
at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Holger/FAI
