[Cooker] idea for MDK 10: use all iso images for installing

2003-11-12 Thread Keld Jørn Simonsen 
Hi!

I got an idea for MDK 10:

Would it not be nice if you could do network and hd installs from
the iso images? 

Currently this cannot be done, as the installer code only does this
for the first iso image. But it handles the iso format ok, so probably 
it is only a matter of loopback mounting the other images (if found).

best regards
Keld

I guess it will be ready some months before next release, as well as
proxy support (which is almost done, I only need to patch stage2 now).
I know how to do it, I just need some time to code and test.
BTW, we should use the same user agent in urpmi :
User-Agent: DrakX/vivelinuxabaszindozs ;)

I've lot of things pending.
For now, I'm fighting with asm kernel code :)

Hum, what's strange ? It's what it's supposed to do, isn't it ?
However, with current installer, you can only use the first ISO on hard
disk.
