Hi all,
I realize that at present there is no formal
accessible install process for Ubuntu, but I've been trying for some time
to work out a way to get around this fact. It would seem logical that
there should be a way to do a completely hands free, unattended install.
I've been playing with preseed and kickstart, but I'm coming to the conclusion
that by the time I figure out whether I can actually fully
automate the process, I could have already gotten sighted assistance to do
installs on 10 or more systems, grin. The main issue I'm having is that
the installer always seems to stop at some point or another, typically at the
partitioning screen, even though I explicitly tell it not to do so in
my preseed and ks.cfg files.
Failing that, I was hoping to find a way to boot
the install cd, and then telnet or ssh in from another machine. Is it even
possible to do so with the Debian installer? If not, then I strongly feel
that implementing such a feature would benefit remote administrators at large,
as well as offer an accessible solution.
After years of being a RedHat die hard, I'm
seriously considering making the switch to Ubuntu; However, the apparent lack of
any way whatsoever to do an independent install is probably one of the biggest
cons in my book.
Thanks much for any help, thoughts or
comments,
