Annybody, I don't believe that Mandrake has narrowed the possibility to make
an automated install this much.
Any idea of an solution or an suggestion to a .cfg syntax is appreciated.
current cfg
label mdk
KERNEL img/mdk9.1/vmlinuz
append kickstart=../mdk_minimal.cfg
automatic=met:nfs,ser:172.16.255.4,dir:/inst/dist/mdk9.1,netw:static,ip:172.16.255.45,netm:255.255.255.0,gat:172.16.255.2,dns:172.16.255.2,ramdisk_size=60000
initrd=img/mdk9.1/network.rdz root=/dev/ram3 vga=788
