Re: Help with multi install
After you have installed one - you could:
1)
check whats node specific:
cd /etc
find . -type f | xargs grep your_ip_number
find . -type f | xargs grep your_hostname
# above are the files to edit later
enable SULOGIN=yes in /etc/default/rcS
shutdown -h now
while more_disks
do
connect your disks as (ide disks assumed) primary slave, secondary master and slave
boot and login at first login
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdc
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdd
for i in all_partitions; do fsck -f $i; done
for i in root_partitions
do
mount $i /mnt
$EDITOR /mnt/etc/$above_files;
umount /mnt
done
shutdown -h now
disconnect drives and install them in target pc's
done
2)
dpkg --get-selections > list
while more_pcs
do
base install it
fetch file list above
dpkg --set-selections < list
dpkg something_I_forgot or
dselect # go to install, or
apt-get -i `cat list`
done
