Both the Windows PE stuff and SCCM make it pretty painless to install
windows entirely hands off ala kickstart. Cobbler is just really a
smarter PXE / tftp server so if the feature works (that is a big if!)
seems reasonable to not rip out.
I think Windows automated installation does *not* work in Cobbler
because I do not see any windows
special handling in code, only the windows breed. I do not event know
how to test this. What would I use
as kernel/initrd/kernel command line arguments/automatic installation file?
Just because you don't use it doesn't mean other people don't.
That's exactly the point of my email. I want to know if anybody has ever
used or is using this feature.
It is useless to keep features which are not used and/or which do not work.
