+    <para>
+      Goal of duplication is to easily deploy a computer over network without taking care of numbers of computer. In this documentation, we call golden node the node we want to clone.
+      We can duplicate SCSI or IDE hard drive, and duplication support multiple filesystem (reiserfs, ext2, ext3, xfs, jfs).

+      <para>
+	With KA method you can quickly duplicate a node using a <emphasis role="bold">desc</emphasis>
+	file describing partitions. KA method only duplicate data on partitions, so if you have 80go HDD disk, and
+	only 10go on it, KA only duplicates 10go, and not the whole disk. KA method doesn't not support RAID software.

+	  <emphasis role="bold">DEFAULT</emphasis> to kamethod:
+      </para>

+	of the golden node, in the client's nodes memory (<emphasis role="bold">/dev/ram3</emphasis>). Then, nodes chroot their
+	memories (the <emphasis role="bold">/tmp/stage2</emphasis> directory), and launch the <emphasis role="bold">drvinst</emphasis> command from the rescue disk, to probe all needed their modules (drivers).
+	Then, the second step of the duplication starts.
+      </para>
+      <para>
+	The duplication process will clone your drives following
+	the description you have made (<emphasis role="bold">/tmp/desc</emphasis> of the golden node).
+	Nodes will rewrite their partition table, then format their filesystems (ReiserFs, XFS,
+	ext2/3, JFS). All new partitions will be mounted in the <emphasis role="bold">/mnt/disk</emphasis> directory.
+	Then, the drive duplication process will begin. On a fast Ethernet switch you can reach speeds of 10MBytes/sec.

+	At the end of the duplication process, each node will
+	chroot its partitions and rebuild its <emphasis role="bold">/boot/initrd.img</emphasis>,
+	and <emphasis role="bold">/etc/modprobe.conf</emphasis> files.
+	This step ensures that your node will reboot using its potential
+	SCSI drives and adjusting its network card driver. Before
+	rebooting, each node reinstalls lilo/grub. All your node are
+	now ready, and are clone of master node.

+	This step ensures that your node will reboot using its potential
