I enquired about "autoyast" a while ago (not here, mind you). I was
told that autoyast is not flexible enough for this task, and that it
does not support network based installations. If I get you right,
you seem to indicate that it does feature network support?

I'm feeling kinda stupid. Very stupid, to be quite frank. I've taken
the judgment on autoyast without further questions, because the
source of the information has so far been a reliable one. I should
probably have tested things myself, though. I certainly know someone
who owes me a beer now. Dang! :-/

Could you perhaps point me to the best source of information (FAQ,
Tutorials, etc.) on autoyast? It seems to be the tool of choice for
what I need to accomplish. Thanks!
