Hi, I have a problem and need some help. I don't now where to start solving the problem: I have a couple of machines I want to install with autoyast, but they have no cdrom and no network cards with boot rom, so I can't use PXE or Etherboot. Because I have to install about a hundret machines, switching floppies is no option. How can I put all neccessary files on one floppy or how can I setup the server machines. Booting with nfs-root is not a problem, but what have I to put in the root-directory to run autoyast? Sascha

- use network enabled grub floppy - use etherboot floppy images Anything else will be complicated and hard to maintain. Anas
