I have used dpkg to install a custom kernel onto our cluster nodes. The cluster nodes install woody from a local mirror, and one of the last commands the install scripts execute is: dpkg --root=/tmp/target -i /fai/files/packages/kernel-image-2.4.16_20011125.deb < /dev/null
The Installation of the kernel packages automatically tries to run lilo, so before that you should have copied a valid lilo.conf to /tmp/target/etc. Redirecting stdin from /dev/null causes the script to take all default answers which are right _IF_ (big if!!!) there is no kernel of the same version already in the to be installed disks. (Create Bootdisk: No, Run lilo: yes). Tip: run this command by hand a few times to see all interactions the script wants and how to circumvent them... The lilo installation itself does not generate any interactive questions here. > Ingo > > > PGP fingerprint: 859C E367 FF87 CFF0 C637 467E D659 5B15 92E2 C583 Patrick.
