As Alexander said, this can be a "dummy" installer which formats, partitions and install over the network. In my todo list, instead, there's (since at least one year) the idea to implement this with FreeSBIE and BSD Installer. BSD Installer was already ported to FreeSBIE one year ago, and the actual version of BSD Installer works with the new version of the FreeSBIE toolkit. It can be nice to have a dedicated version of FreeSBIE which ships with a dhcp server on it and can act as a PXE server, allowing clients to netboot into BSD Installer. If you agree, we can start working on it.
