After playing around with this a while, it all works just great.
However, I would like to add my add on pattern to the (visible)
pattern list when installing, handy when doing network install
in manual mode (as opposed to using autoinst.xml, where it works
just fine).
Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
With the selection format files I seem to remember that
it was enough to create a selections file with a one-liner
for the add on product, much as is described at
<http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Creating_Add-Ons>
for the patterns file. However, it doesn't work for me,
the add on pattern does not show up in the pattern selection
list when doing network install in manual mode.
Any takers?
