Hi, We are planning to use FreeBSD + Kronometrix [1] as a ready image. For that we are planning to modify the original ISO image and add our own software to it. We want users to perform a basic FreeBSD installation from the ISO image CD or USB, but answering to some questions only, not all. For example, we want to ask interactively: * the keymap * the networking configuration * the storage ZFS by default (because we dont know the customer storage) * and the root password the rest being automated. I understood we need to modify the original ISO by adding our bits. Some questions: 1. Should we create a /etc/installerconfig file, where we shall have our config ? 2. Should we define there something like ... DISTRIBUTIONS="kernel.txz base.txz kronometrix.txz" bsdinstall keymap bsdinstall netconfig bsdinstall zfsboot #!/bin/sh echo "Running post installation" 3. Can we run interactive and non-interactive tasks withing the installerconfig file ? Where is this documented ? bsdinstall seems short in explanations and descriptions regarding this part.
