This manual page documents briefly the mkautoinstallcd command.
mkautoinstallcd creates an iso image which can be used to boot an autoinstall client and initiate an autoinstall.
A summary of options is included below.
Show summary of options
Display version and copyright information.
Create a CD image for autoinstallclients of this architecture. Defaults to the architecture of the host on which mkautoinstallcd is being run.
Name of the file that will hold the resulting ISO image. (Not to worry, this will only be about 3 MB in size.)
The flavor of the boot package to use. If this option is not specified, you will be asked to choose a flavor from the available list interactively.
Specify an alternate initial ramdisk to use. This is rarely useful, but may be necessary in some cases (e.g. needing to add more special files in /dev). See the SystemImager manual for instructions on creating a custom initial ramdisk.
This option allows you to pass options to the autoinstall kernel. For example, to tell the kernel to use ttyS3 as the serial console:
-append "console=ttyS3"
Don't print any output, just provide an appropriate exit code.
