All:The install.cfg mechanism is pretty wicked. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a really efficient way to provide new clients (or class of clients) an install.cfg without rebuilding an MFSROOT image. Possibly a TFTP or NFS URL passed from the DHCP server -> boot loader -> kernel sysctl -> sysinstall(8). Thoughts or other ideas?
You can configure sysinstall in your install.cfg to execute shell commands, including any fetch-like command. Some scripting should be possible to do what you require. I wrote about it here:
