| (*) Automatic install
\----------------------
This feature is used to replace redhat kickstart. I use the kernel
parameter "automatic" with the following keywords:
from list:
method nfs, ftp, http, cdrom, disk
network static, dhcp
giving (string) values:
ip
dns
gateway
hostname
domai
server
directory
Keywords must be passed with commas and colons, that is for example:
automatic=method:nfs,network:static,ip:192.168.1.24,server:192.168.1.7,directory:/stable/i586
-=-=--
Just added the network interface to the automatic features. I did not call
it "device" but "interface", though.
