Hi Bernard, please copy the two attached scripts into your image to some place like /usr/bin. scconf_tool is a slightly modified version of what comes with systeminstaller-oscar. scconf_bootinfo gives you the info on the kernel, initrd, root device and append path.
You'll need to do (in the autoinstall script): a=`chroot /a /usr/bin/scconf_bootinfo` kernel=`echo $a | cut -d" " -f1` dev=`echo $a | cut -d" " -f2` initrd=`echo $a | cut -d" " -f3` append=`echo $a | cut -d" " -f4-` ... If this works for you I will add the two scripts to systemconfigurator and remove scconf_tool from systeminstaller-oscar. Please be aware that the paths printed need to be prefixed with /a. There might be a problem when no absolute paths are used in the systemconfig.conf file or when the path is relative to the /boot directory. In that case you'll need to prefix the kernel and initrd paths with /boot first.
