_I_ already have the install infrastructure set up, it's evolved since RHL 7.2, and caters for Debian, Ubuntu and RHL-family. However, sometimes it's convenient not to use it.
I'm contemplating extending it to do Windows too; I have one ISC DHCPD set up that does Windows, I'm contemplating choosing between Windows and The Others at PXE-boot time.
There has also been discussion (maybe other fora) in the distant past about preventing install loops. Getting the CD out early would help.
Also a note when it's safe to remove USB media. for those with that need. -- Cheers John -- spambait 1aaaaaaa coco merseine nu Z1aaaaaaa coco merseine nu -- Advice http://webfoot.com/advice/email.top.php http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 You cannot reply off-list:-)
