Thanks Charles! That looks like it might well be what I'm looking for… Couple of questions: Do I have to build my own CD? Or is there some way I can use a standard netinst CD, put a magic parameter on the boot command line and maybe something (what?) on a handy USB stick, and have it all fall into place? This seems to involve heavy use of pre-seeding. I don't have any experience with pre-seeding, but maybe this is the time to learn. Can you point me to an explanation of what I need to know? Thanks!
