I won't change drakconf now, but it works both ways, so it's ok :)

Yesterday (or this night), I looking for the new darkxconf and find the autoinstall tools. This is a very good idea but I have suggestions (perhaps not for actual 8.2 if it is too late): - Purpose just to create the file auto_inst.cfg and maybe the syslinux.cfg - Purpose to select a list of packages as during the installation with dependency resolving for creating this from server for all distribution's versions, and put directly the file on ftp|NFS|http serveur - Can set all parameters as network, ect... I know this need a lot of work and perhaps you are in way to do this. It is just suggestions. At time I'm testing auto_inst over ftp, I have a dos partition with just syslinux, kernel and network.img, I boot and all unless partitionning and format. I can said you this work very well ;-) And I forgot, write the doc, but I think it is not most important for the moment ! Very Thanks. -- Linux pour Mac !?

The only steps that will be non-automatic are doPartitionDisks and formatPartitions. this makes me think that's this is the old way to tell the auto_install. Nowadays, you can use "interactiveSteps" to achieve this.

Thanks, I understand the difference, I have select "Replay", but I can't lose this Windows at time, and message from lilo affraid me. Don't forget it's a cooker, and I wan't test for help you, if there are a bug... In the file autoinst.cfg, I don't see where the format is specified, but my diskette is at home, I will relook this this evening as Pixel ask me, I will send this file. I want use this diskette for reinstall faster the cooker for testing. If doubt, I retry to create this diskette after an other installation.

On the floppy all mount point seem correct (in .cfg) At the end of the install you had this dialog: -=-==-==-==-==-=--- The auto install can be fully automated if wanted, in that case it will take over the hard drive!!
