FAI.me is a web-based build service for creating customized
installation or cloud images for Debian.

It's using the FAI software, so the installation will run unattended
without any interaction necessary. The cloud images are ready to boot
in a VM.

On the website, you can customize different properties of your image,
like the disk image size and the disk format, the language, a user
name and password.

You can select a Debian distribution, a desktop and enable backports
just by one click. It's possible to add your public key for access to
the root account. This can also be done by just specifying your GitHub
account. You can add your own list of packages that will be included
into the image. After a few minutes the your disk images is created
and you will get a download link, including a log the the creation
process and a link to the FAI configuration that was used to create
your customized image.

The talk will demonstrate the build service and explains how the jobs
are processed in the background using the FAI tools. The
configuration, that is used will also be presented.
