But the basic-installed systems wasn't installed using FAI. It needs an
entirely new partitioning of the hard disk, it might have an entirely
different kernel than what we want to install, it might not even be

So no PXE based install, no USB stick install, etc.
I might not fully understand your case, but on an already
