Hi!
I'm trying to set up a system to continually and automatically run
benchmarks on the most recent CURRENT. The idea is to PXE-boot the
server, do an automated jumpstart installation, reboot and run a few
benchmarks. Lather, rinse, repeat.
My problem is when the jumpstart installation

I often use the serial console for installs just to save digging out a screen

What I do whenever I download release ISOs is unpack the disc-1 image to disk

You can try to create a Mirror using RAID. You can either create a
software or a hardware (recommended) managed Mirror. In case of a disk
crash you still have a copy of the updated data on the disk.

Have a look at this article:

It may give you some ideas although it is for Linux. The basic premise
is to make qemu emulate the guest host so it appears as any other
physical host on the network. It may work better.
