Hi, I'm trying to make an unattended installer that takes a file with something like:
macaddress|osversion|ipaddress|admin username|password
It should be able to install an OS (based on osversion - say redhat, debian,freebsd or Windows) based on the MAC address that it uses to get an OS with.
for RedHat, its easy. I can just make a mapping between macaddress and ipaddress in dhcpd.conf, and have it load a PXELinux.cfg file that has something like:
LABEL linux KERNEL pxeboot.linux/vmlinuz APPEND initrd=pxeboot.linux/initrd.img ks=http:192.168.167.254/pxe.php ksdevice=eth0
and I can write a PHP page that'll parse the above file, and generate a
kickstart config with the appropriate ip and password.
However, I've no idea how to approach this with windows. Can someone recommend how I change the unattended installer to use a different IP or username, based on it's mac address ?
