batch install
 
Hi,

I want to install slackware on several machines, which the very similar options and packages.
I serched under "batch" install and couldn't find anything .. I'm presumign this has been done by several people.

The problem is automating install process, so you don;t have to go through all the ncurses dialogs ... I presume a script has to be written: how can I get the setup program to follow it.

... what are the tips and tricks for this?

thanks!

Clonezilla may be useful.

there is also such as batch script example shown at slackbasics.org. Just add it to your install cd and run it. Tag files may also be useful to specify custom sets of packages to install. There is a Slackware tag file generator script (Alien's?).
