Hello Edmund, I don't think there is any official material on administrative installation from the foundation. If you find anything, I would be happy to hear about it.
When you create a mst-file for the installation that file is controlling witch language is installed. You can set all other languages that Estonian to 0. You can download the official exe-files and unpack them to you server. Half way through the installation process you should abort the installation (you only need to unpack - not to install). From there you can create the new mst-file. I quess you can use any software to run the actual installation. I have tried with Zenworks as well as simple batch/kix files. Regarding upgrading, I think (but I don't know 100%) that you need to uninstall the current version and then install the new version afterward. Perhaps there is some parameter to overrule this. I don't know. Best regards, Leif Lodahl 2011/5/26 Edmund Laugasson <[email protected]> > Hi everyone! > > I need your help, dear community! > > I'm planning massive deployment of LibreOffice.
