+| (*) Automatic install
+\----------------------
+
+This feature is used to replace redhat kickstart. I use the kernel
+parameter "automatic" with the following keywords:
+
+from list:
+ method nfs, ftp, http, cdrom, disk
+ network static, dhcp
+ interface eth0, eth1, ..
+
+giving (string) values:
+ (static IP infos)
+ ip
+ dns
+ gateway
+ netmask
+
+ (2nd step network config)
+ hostname
+ domain
+
+ (3rd step nfs, ftp, http installs)
+ server
+ directory
+
+ (3rd step ftp only)
+ user
+ pass
+
+ (2nd step disk install)
+ disk
+
+ (3rd step disk install)
+ partition
+
+ (4th step disk install)
+ directory
+
+
+Keywords must be passed with commas and colons, that is for example:
+
+ automatic=method:nfs,network:static,ip:192.168.1.24,server:192.168.1.7,directory:/stable/i586
