Hi,
I've been reading through the AI documentation, and it's not clear to me
how one would implement the "old jumpstart" feature of derived profiles.
I'm certain I must have missed it...
Currently we have a large lab populated with a wide variety of systems
-- no two alike. We use derived profiles and a "smart" begin script to
generate the profile based on the hardware present... choosing the boot
disk (because it's the one on the particular type of HBA desired, versus
simply choosing c0t0d0 or something based on size), selecting multiple
NICs to configure, even including additional software packages based on
the HW configuration.
Needless to say our begin script is rather extensive, our rules file has
twelve lines in it and never changes, and our finish script actually
pre-configures some of the software installed via the derived profile.
How do I accomplish the same with the AI?

Cheers,
Jon.
