Hi, Currently interactive autoyast is not possible. You can however do this by changing the default selection files. Keep just the packages you want and make sure dependencies are OK and start manual installation... Anas On June 26, 2003 11:34 am, Robison, Jonathon (M.) wrote:

I recognize that this problem has probably been tackled before, but I also recognize that there's probably a one line answer, too.

I have duplicated all the SuSE 8.2 CD's to an apache server and made them available via http.

What I want to end up with is a Floppy disk I can give out that people can boot to install SuSE. They need to be able to do all configuration as they normally would, EXCEPT that I want it to use MY list of rpm packages to install.

I can make an .sel file and place it with the others in the http server (I think) but what I need is a boot floppy that will let folks configure for their hardware, including partitioning, etc. but enforce my package list on their install.

In RH, I would just make a normal boot floppy, create/modify the ks.cfg, and the ks.cfg would list the packages but not much else, forcing the system to ask about anything not listed. It seems a little less straight-forward in SuSE.

Pointers on how to, or url's with existing HOWTO docs would be greatly appreciated!
