As the ramdisk is embedded in bsd.rd, if you want to do a local autoinstall you need to create a bsd.rd file that contains a ramdisk with your install.conf in there, under the name /auto_install.conf (as described in autoinstall(8)). The link you gave describes a good method of doing that, and nowadays it's easier because rdsetroot is part of the base system so you don't even need to build it. Regards, Jurjen Oskam
