In converting my jumpstart configuration over to IPS, I need to install a "finish install" service. The challenge for me is how to do this whilst working with the install servers we have. I think this is what I need to do, please correct me if I'm wrong.
* start up pkg.depotd on a new IP/port# combination that I can create the new IPS package with as per the guidelines for creating packages (pkg send, etc.) * create the new package that I need to install * in the default.xml manifest that I use with the caiman autoinstaller, I need to add my an additional package repository authority using ai_pkg_repo_addl_authority. * also in default.xml, under ai_install_packages, I add a new package, "finish-install". Well, I might want to call "finish-install" by some other name, such as "finish-darrenr-install" so that it isn't likely to be found in any other package authority. Then during the install, AI will query the various depotd's and find finish-darrenr-install at my server and download it from there. Is that it in a summary?
