Then boot in single mode, reconfig networking, modprobe.conf, fstab, hostname, etc., reboot and that's it.
This is the sort of stuff I need to automate, at least with a script. It is fairly repetitious and I am not reliable enough to just do it by hand and not forget something. It would be so much better if I could just install a custom rpm. I guess I need to bite the bullet and learn about cobbler.
This assumes all machines are on the same arch and you don't use LVM
LVM is so cool, but I actually never use any of its cool features, just get bit by the gotchas. I am mostly just setting up simple workstations. I wish the installer made it easier to go back to the old-fashioned way. I guess I should talk to upstream.
Thanks for all the inputs. Dave
