I am using pxe boot to do this. It essentially sets up your machine to download a kernel and an mfs_root over the network. My mfsroot is a superset of mfsroot.flp from the freebsd distribution. In mfsroot.flp, the /stand directory contains a bunch of executables hardlinked to the same file. a> I'd like to know how this executable was created. I am using sysinstall to setup my machines. Since I don't want my install procedure to be interactive, I am running sysinstall in batch mode (I have an install.cfg which directs its execution). Within install.cfg, I have the following at the top: 'noninteractive=YES'. Inspite of this, right after sysinstall begins to run, it asks me if i'd like to setup IPV6. I don't want to use IPV6 and I'd like to get around this prompt. b> Does anyone know how to get around the IPV6 prompt in sysinstall? regards, Rohit Grover.
