I figured it out:
I copied the section from install.pl to my config.pl and edit'ed:
my @oem_drivers = multi_choice ...
my @retail_drivers = multi_choice ...
Just remember to return a @ array.
With this done I now got database that answers all the questions so
when I want to do an install I just network boot and wait. Dont have to
move a finger.
All the real setup is handles on a webpage.
For each computer type we got, I create a hardwaretype, assign drivers
and Text drivers (MassStorageDrivers) and specify a default partionscheme.
All the drivers was entered into the system via a webinterface, so it is
basically just some javascript that helps you assign to a hardware type.
For each default installation type I create a softwareprofil and assign
softweare scripts to it.
Like with the drivers the software scripts are entered via a
webinterface, and assigne to each softwareprofil via some javascript
interface.
For each individual computer you create an entry and assign
softwareprofile, hardwaretype, and specify if you want a diffrent
partionscheme then the hardwaretypes default.
The you can assigne extra scripts so that if you need a single machine
to have some extra software you dont need to create a softwareprofile
for that.
The software script have set a priority so when the
confil.pl script pull it out it is installed in that order. The priority
is set globally and not for each softwaretype/machine
If anyone is intrested in seen the config.pl, conf-psql.pl, the
html/php/javascript and the postgresql backend let me know.
Regards,
Nils
