I have released version 2.1 of Unattended. The new entries in NEWS.txt are below.
The most interesting change here is that install.pl now reads the partition table before and after running the fdisk commands, and only reboots the machine if the partition table changes. The [_meta] section now has an "fdisk_cmds" variable which is a semicolon-separated list of commands to execute. The commands always run, but the machine only reboots if the partition table actually changes. If you set this variable in z:\site\unattend.txt or in z:\site\config.pl, the machine will reboot the first time (because the partition table will change) but proceed automatically the second. This brings us one step closer to being able to FULLY automate the installation; i.e., create an installation process which requires no human interaction at all. I also added a "replace_mbr" variable to the [_meta] section, since combining it with the fdisk commands isn't really the Right Thing. - Pat *** Changes in version 2.1 (2002-Nov-10) Create and document setenv.pl script. Use it in Cygwin/SSH scripts. In install.pl, only reboot machine if partition table changes. Moving ever closer to total non-interaction... Update win2ksp3-hotfixes.pl. Add support for Netgear FA311/FA312 network cards. Fix various minor bugs. Overhaul documentation for InstallShield. Import version 2.0 of SYSLINUX binaries. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ unattended-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/unattended-info
