isidoros.

Hello everybody,

I'am trying to make an installation of a sles9 based system. In order
to
install this system after booting a floppy disk (or usb) should be
"inserted" with a auto configuration file.


AFAIK, you can't attach and detach a floppy disk/image at runtime, the
best you can do is put something like:

"
fda = '/installmedia/IDR/floppy.img'
"

in your config.
