yes, just modify the boot/i386/loader/isolinux.cfg file and add your parameters there.
Since what we are doing is offering an modified ISO image of the SUSE 10 SP2 stuff with a custome linuxrc file. This file has my choice of autoyast files for different nodes. If I have menu choices with a variable added on the initd line, say config=entry or config=SA, then could the rules file query the passed-in command line once the ram disk boots?
yes, no problem. You'll find your parameters in /etc/install.inf and in /proc/cmdline
I vaguely remember seeing something about /proc/comman_line being available once you have booted? So the script in rules could shell out and get this valu as a custom1, then I proceed with mixed rules/classes handling?
Does this sound feasable? And would you know the steps needed?
all you need to do is changing the isolinux.cfg file and write a rule to parse/grep in /etc/install.inf or /proc/cmdline. Then you can create a new DVD. It's as easy as it sounds :) -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
