Bug Description

First paragraph reads: "For installing on multiple computers it's possible to do fully automatic installations. Ubuntu packages intended for this include fai (which uses an install server), replicator, systemimager, autoinstall, and the Ubuntu Installer itself."

fai, replicator, systemimager, autoinstall all have problems:

- FAI was removed from 9.10 by its author;
- replicator and systemimager were seriously out of date and were removed from Debian;
- autoinstall's functionality was merged into d-i in 2005.

---------------
installation-guide (20081208ubuntu6) lucid; urgency=low

  * Bump kernelversion to 2.6.32.
  * Bump x11ver to 7.5.
  * Bump GNOME version to 2.30.
  * Bump release version and names for Lucid (LP: #501572).
  * Remove comments about automatic installation methods that have been
    removed from Ubuntu (LP: #496554).
  * Remove documentation of
    base-installer/kernel/linux/initramfs-generators; setting this to
    anything other than the default will cause the installer to fail
    (LP: #415469).
  * Stop building for lpia.
