Hi,
I need to jumpstart several systems. I'd like to create a bootable CDROM
which I
can drop into the CD and walk away from while it loads a subset of RPMS
and does some vanilla configuration. Basically the Redhat installer in a
non interactive,
totally CD contained install.
Looking through various docs. it looks like perhaps a combination of
mkisofs, mkkickstart would work. What do I need to hack to build the
installable CD?
I assume I would only need the stuff under RedHat. Taking a look at that
I see an
instimage directory: any details on its' purpose? Is this a bootstrap
for the install process?
base directory: the base install? any pointers on info related to its
contents?
RPMS: pretty self explanitory ;-)
Thanks in advance!
-Noah
