This document : The obvious data file we have to add to the ISO is our autoconfigure file. However, it has to be set up in a directory for itself and a companion file, and each has to be called special names. Let's say that the directory within the ISO that we're going to use for this is called /cslab/inst. Then our autoinstall configuration file must be called /cslab/inst/user-data, and we need an empty /cslab/inst/meta-data file beside it. At install time, the path to this directory is /cdrom/cslab/inst, because the ISO is mounted on /cdrom.
(I put our configuration in a subdirectory here because we put additional bootstrap files under /cslab that are copied onto the system as part of the autoinstall.) The isolinux configuration file we need to modify in the ISO is /isolinux/txt.cfg. We want to modify the kernel command line to add a new argument, 'ds=nocloud;s=/cdrom/cslab/inst/'. So: default live label live menu label ^Install Ubuntu Server kernel /casper/vmlinuz append initrd=/casper/initrd quiet ds=nocloud;s=/cdrom/cslab/inst/ --- gives a PATH to /cdrom/cslab/inst and the file "has" to be named user-data (in this example).... WHY? how do I support Multiple selections on the txt.cfg file I am not getting "nothing" happening for autoinstall. I need more than one file not just user-data. How do I do that? My file is placed at /cdrom/autoinstall_mediacontroller_ubutu20.yaml my txt.cfg file is : label LSI-M menu label ^Install Ubuntu MediaController 20.04 LSI AutoInstall kernel /casper/vmlinuz append initrd=/casper/initrd debian-installer/local=en_US autoinstall ds=nocloud;s=/cdrom/autoinstall_mediacontroller_ubuntu20.yaml quiet splash biosdevname=0 net.ifnames=0 --- I get the boot menu - I select my item - nothing auto install happens - it just boots to the normal stuff. I based off of live-server-20.04 Thanks, Jerry
