Or with pxe you can just put it on NFS. I was thinking of something perhaps even simpler. Mount a second CD image with just install.cfg. Will try that and see how it works. If I was going to do lots of install PXE may be the way to go, but wondering if it is worth the effort for the handfull of times I would use it. For physicall install I will try USB. Right now jus trying to solve the issue with VMware just to get familiar with the install.cfg syntax.
