Hello all,

Is there a way to feed the "installation kernel"  on a boot floppy a   
config file
such that it will do a complete installation without asking *any*   
questions?

I've seen the sysinstall shortcuts stuff which would be fine except, as I   
understand
it, this can only be used when you have a system that already has freebsd   
on it.

I can make a mini kernel bootable floppy and then attach to an ftp server   
and
download stuff etc but I just want to check that I'm not re-inventing   
some wheels
by doing this.

Many thanks for any pointers
