Hi Andrew. That would be OK, but I don't need (and it's actually undesirable) to reinstall at every reboot: one of the systems actually requires an extra reboot to complete the setup... if installation restarts, I'll find the system in a bootloop... Or maybe I didn't understand and you're calling fai-chboot and just not bothering about DHCP ?
