    Here is a Video showing an example.

    I prefer Centos so my instructions are based on Centos.

    # yum update && yum install conspy
    

    Follow the instructions here to modify the Init Image:
    Modifying the Init Image

    Once you have the init image extracted and mounted, add your ssh key.

    cd /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir
    cd root
    mkdir .ssh
    /bin/echo "==yoursshkeystringgoesbetweenthequotes==" >> .ssh/authorized_keys
    

    copy Conspy to the image:

    cp /usr/bin/conspy /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/bin
    cp /usr/lib64/libncurses.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
    cp /usr/lib64/libncurses.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
    cp /usr/lib64/libncursesw.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
    cp /usr/lib64/libncursesw.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
    cp /usr/lib64/libtinfo.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
    cp /usr/lib64/libtinfo.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
    

    replace x in libncurses++.so.x with the version of libcurses you have installed.
    Follow the instruction on how to recompress the image and you’re done.

    ssh to the PC and login as root.
    run the conspy command to view the progress.
