I would appreciate any suggestions. We use Kickstart. You can build a customised Kisckstart script to install anything you want. Just put custom config files accessible off a web server, and you can just copy those over as part of the setup. Or package them up into your own RPMs and run your own repo. In fact, if you're doing several of these, it's probably recommended to run your own repo with the base and updates for speed and bandwidth savings. You can have kickststart run a "yum update" so each box will have the latest updates as at install time. Your boot CD or flash stick can auto-boot the kickstart files, so all you have to do is insert the media and turn the box on. Once it's done, all you have to do is reboot and you're ready to go. -- Spiro Harvey Knossos Networks Ltd (04) 460-2531 : (021) 295-1923 www.knossos.net.nz -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
