so how does the cobbler server know what to install when you reinstall using koan? I presumed that it remembers the name/mac or something so when it sees that again it knows what profile to install the machine back to?
Typically you tell koan what profile/system record you want to install, then koan fetches the data on that profile/system from the cobbler server you specify with --server.
If you use --autodetect-system it will ask the cobbler server if a system has been configured with one of the matching MAC addresses, which is useful if you want to write a generic reinstall script.
