Fermi-install is a program that works with the fermiinstall rpm.  

This script will configure your lilo.conf to use the
floppy image installed with the rpm.  It will then reboot
your machine and you will be able to install Fermi Linux 
over the network, without having to use a floppy or CD.

Fermi-install also has allowances to use a kickstart script which is
able to be configured ahead of time if wanted.

Below is a list of the different options available through the script, allowing
you to install quicker and easier if you wish.  Most all of the options deal
with the kickstart script.  To get the information below, you can simply type
fermi-install -h
