As an organization we've developed the volunteer expertise and
documentation around working with and managing Debian/Ubuntu
deployments, so I'm also reluctant to bring CentOS into the mix here.
Honest question WRT Ubuntu Server vs. Lubuntu and the proposed
tooling: Is there a reason we need a graphical interface on our
PXE/proxy/NFS server at all? Lubuntu just brings in the graphical
components for a desktop, which generally are not appropriate for a
Linux-based server.
Thanks for your work on this Tai and Michael.
