Yep. And if the box ever needs to be reinstalled, I remove the
machine-specific PXE file and remotely reboot it :)

The cluster is a test cluster where students will have to install nd

sheet must be easy to do. That and the fact that physical access to the
systems is extremely limited made this setup neccessary.
