Re: jumpstart query, booting from a homemade DVD

Hi,

We built our own DVD with Solaris 10 to make custom installs
with answers premade for most questions... it works fine...

except...

It still asks all the questions, even though they are answered
in the sysidcfg, it even fills out the fields with the answers...

What we would like is for it to ask the questions to which it
doesnt have answers and skip the ones we answered, it doesnt
seem like ttinstall can handle this :-P

basically we would like it to ask the four unanswered questions
hostname
ip-address
default-router
netmask

all others are static and known, like name-service, ipv6 (no) and
so forth...

but even with all this information in the sysidcfg it still pops
the question of what kind of router there is, with the default one
preticked :-/

Anyone have a smoother way around this?
Or perhaps the source to ttinstall which seems to be doing the work.
I assume ttinstall is just a collector and then stores the info somewhere
before the install continues?

I am sorry if I ask something stupid, but all my earlier jumping have been
from a network and then I had no trouble avoiding questions :-/

Maybe it helps to define a router for the interface:

network_interface=primary {protocol_ipv6=no default_route=1.2.3.1 netmask=255.255.255.0}
