It does a very flexible network installation, using preseeding and a class system. A detailed description about FAI and a list of FAI users can be found at the project page. http://fai-project.org Have a look at the FAI (Fully Automatic Installation) project.

How can I create an install CD or USB which uses a Kickstart configuration and downloads the Ubuntu image from a public mirror? Can I make it retrieve the Kickstart configuration file from my server via the web? I want to install Ubuntu on 100 remotely dispersed machines.

I would be _very_ surprised if Linux Mint did not work. Linux Mint should work the same way considering Linux Mint is 90% Ubuntu underneath, with a few extras and themes put on top.

The Desktop CD on the other hand, based on its live-CD nature, does not include the .deb packages but is actually a squashfs image that is directly unpacked onto the installation drive. This kind of utility--network installation--allows the admin to customize exactly what is installed on the machine, which requires access to a list of .deb packages. This sort of customization is not possible with a standard squashfs image (which is essentially the same for every machine) as used on the Desktop CD. @JJ – The alternate CD contains accessible .deb packages that are used during installion.
