Hello list, I have a FBSD box that runs as a web/mail server to provide access to a web based application. I want to build a custom FBSD 7.0 installation disk. By custom I mean: 1. automatic disk partition based on a scheme i provide. 2. automatic installation of the needed packages as well as the config files. I plan to update the packages which i might keep on a ftp server on remake the installation disk anytime i make package updates. 3. automatic "installation" of all the php/html/perl/sh scripts needed to run the application. Basically i want a disk that you put it in the cdrom and installs the system, packages and all the necessary scripts to run the application. More than that a modified kernel to allow pf, as well as the pf configuration file. The installation will always be on the same hardware in case of failure. So can you please give me hints as well as opinions how should i start this. What alternatives should i consider? thank you, v
