Hi Douglas, Did you know the installer can run non-interactively by giving it a properties file as an argument? Probably not, since it wasn't documented :) But now it is, on this page: http://fedora-commons.org/confluence/x/wABI
We use this a lot for Fedora's CI tests, since they need to be run in a fresh Fedora installation each time. Try running it interactively first, making the choices you want. Then look at $FEDORA_HOME/install/install.properties. It should contain things like the fedora.home choice, db choice, etc. Modify it however you want for your installer, then run: java -jar fedora-installer-3.2.jar install.properties - Chris On Fri, May 15, 2009 at 5:49 PM, STANLEY, DOUGLAS <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello all, > > I’m working on building a debian package for fedora commons, and I was > wondering if there’s an alternative way to install it (i.e. not using the > java installer)?
