There is a YaST module that lets you select an additional pattern. I can not remember the name now but I am sure it exists as we, in the linkat project, wrote our own and, when we finished, realized that YaST guys have done the same at the same time, and of course better. The yast module was just presenting you with some options with descriptions and icons, and depending on the user selection, some extra patterns were added. Then, each pattern was writing to disc a control.xml file so on firstboot you will get different workflows. Would that be useful? jordi massaguer i pla http://jordimassaguerpla.blogspot.com/ openSUSE member Novell Certified Linux Professional 10 ----- Mensaje original ----

Now we need to create a real product.
I thought we have it for 10.2 and 10.3 already? ;-)
well we have a really great repository and it's portable too, but the Extis server is a real product ;)
Well, you can pay the openSUSE-Education Team for releasing the add on if you like... :-)
how about a web page that asks what language you want , then another in that language?
should be possible. Please provide a template.
Hm. If we create an insallable media (which means: remaster the original openSUSE DVD), we can add autoyast profiles in the first boot step, so a user will get Boot from Harddisc Manual Installation Install Kids desktop Install Youth desktop Install Edu Desktop Install Server
The help [F1] would give a better description.
WOW, I though that would be way to much work and not show the power of "ADD-ON" technology.
You're right: thats a bit away from the "Add-on" technology - but already possible. :-)
but ok! and the server could be the EXTIS server plus my three favorite apps! openSIS, Moodle, openbiblio YA? :)
If you can persuade Peter Grill from the EXTIS Team to release the OSS-Apps under GPL....
OK, I would do the TUX series and gcompris for the lower "kids" more according to what the teachers like. color shape word and hand to eye stuff are very important at that age group.
