 fai-live-cd with live-package
 -----------------------------
 
+aim
+---
+
+The aim of this fai-live-cd is to replace the old fai-cd with a cd build with 
+modern tools. A fai-cd boots a system, and then runs FAI on it, to install that
+system. So, as opposed to normal live-cds, a fai-cd destroys an existing 
+installation and installs the machine.
+
+Currently it only installs a basic debian system, in future one should be able 
+to select (via syslinux kernel params) the type of installation, i.e. normal,
+fai-server or desktop.
+
+But first, this should be a proof of concept and install a basic debian system.
+
+
+howto
+-----
+
 download all files in live-include-dir and run
 # sudo apt-get install live-package
 # sudo rm /etc/make-live.conf 	
 # sudo make-live --hook live-include-dir/hook --config ./make-live.conf

+--------------------
 
-additional comments:
 - this is alpha, tested with fai 3.0 on etch
 - /etc/make-live.conf is not included, I basically used the package default
 - feedback is great
