When you came back, you have the system installed. You don't have to stay arround answering questions every three install steps (and wait for reboots, etc). What I'd really like is and unatended install option that is well documenten and easy to setup. Lizard unatended install is almost imposible to understand and a pain to setup. I must confest that RedHat's kickstart is good (at least is easy to understand and configure). The big problem is that the gui has about 50 dependencies. The first time I used it I installed it on a minimal system and ended up with allmost a full install ;) Federico Voges Socio gerente Intrasoft Malabia 2137 14 A (1425) Buenos Aires Argentina Te/Fax: 54-11-4833-5182 e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.intrasoft.com.ar PGP Public Key Fingerprint: A536 4595 EB6F D197 FBC1 5C3A 145C 2516 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPsdk version 1.7.1 (C) 1997-1999 Network Associates, Inc. and its affiliated companies. iQA/AwUBPYjFoxRcJRaVKt4XEQLG7wCdHCy4xZGK+SmFvCaVMc887wfvvoUAni9+ gkCjAtjbhDQYxeRGCE+mrb28 =ff/u -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
