"Many system administrators would prefer to use an automated
installation method to install Fedora or Red Hat Enterprise Linux on
their machines. To answer this need, Red Hat created the kickstart
installation method. Using kickstart, a system administrator can
create a single file containing the answers to all the questions that
would normally be asked during a typical installation.
Kickstart files can be kept on a server system and read by individual
computers during the installation. ..."
That's a good one for Red Hat and for the sysadmin section.
I'm still on the old-fashioned Clonezilla 'ghosting', pxe-boot, or
I've even been known to use 'dd | gzip | nc' or 'dd | ssh -c'!
For completeness, what do others use?
Cheers,
Martin
