I've discovered clonezilla recently, and I'm in doubt if i can use it on a bootable pen-drive to install a OS like linux or windows on multiple computers on my server room (not at the same time), plugging the pendrive on the usb like any boot,but getting the ISOs via my network, with one of my servers storing the necessary ISOs, this would facilitate our work here so much, would eliminate the need to have several pen drives each with an OS.
I've also searched about the Mass deployment and lite server but couldn't find anything saying exactly what is it , idk if its what i am looking for so, if anyone can explain to me what is it.
My explanation may have been confusing... if so, let me know so I can try to explain in more detail.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Yes, Clonezilla can be used for massive deployment. You can save the image from a template machine, then massively deploy the image to multiple machine. Or you can directly massively deploy a template machine's OS on a hard drive to multiple machines.
