Well, I install 2.2 systems using a CD and a sysinstall script on a floppy.. Sysinstall is fairly simple to automate. Its not really 'unattended' tho.

It adds distributions and packages automatically though. --- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
