| (*) Automatic install
\----------------------

This feature is used to replace redhat kickstart. It uses the kernel
parameter "automatic" with keywords separated with commas and colons, on
the following genres:

	automatic=method:nfs,network:static,ip:192.168.1.24,server:192.168.1.7,directory:/stable/i586

	automatic=method:ftp,network:dhcp,server:ftp.ciril.fr,directory:/pub/linux/mandrake-devel/cooker

	automatic=method:ftp,network:dhcp,server:companyserver,directory:/mdkinst,user:XXX,pass:XXX

	automatic=method:ftp,interface:eth1,network:dhcp,...

	automatic=method:ftp,network:adsl,adsluser:XXX,adslpass:XXX,...

	automatic=method:cdrom

	automatic=method:disk,disk:hdb,partition:hdb7


The keywords correspond to each "virtual" question answered automatically,
either from a list or from a free field.


Keywords are:


`method' <- (nfs,ftp,http,cdrom,disk)

if nfs/ftp/http:

    `network' <- (static,dhcp,adsl)

    if multiple interfaces detected:

        `interface' <- (list-of-detected-interfaces)

    fi

    if static:

        `ip', `dns', `gateway', `netmask' (free fields)

    elsif adsl:

	`adsluser', `adslpass' (free field)

    fi

    if resolving fails:

        `hostname', `domain' (free fields)

    fi   

    `server', `directory' (free fields)

    if ftp:

        `user', `pass' (free fields)

    fi

fi

if disk:

    `disk' <- (list-of-detected-disks)

    `partition' <- (list-of-detected-partitions)

    `directory' (free fields)

fi



You may use shorter versions of keywords (it helps reducing size of
commandline), please find each keyword short-alias counterpart in file
../automatic.c under the identifier named "short_aliases".

This gives for example for:

	automatic=method:nfs,network:static,ip:192.168.1.24,server:192.168.1.7,directory:/stable/i586
==>
	automatic=met:nfs,net:static,ip:192.168.1.24,ser:192.168.1.7,dir:/stable/i586
