OpenBSD Autoinstall

This script mounts USB stick, extracts bsd.rd filesystem and patches it with auto_install.conf.

I use it to patch installXX.img when updating system on my laptop. It works for me, but you probably want to edit few things.

Installation

Drop the files into /root

Usage

  1. Obtain USB stick
  2. Download installXX.img and write it, as prescribed in the FAQ.
  3. Tune install.resp
  4. By default Makefile assumes USB stick to be /dev/sd1 - alter if necessary
  5. make site - create site file from files listed in site.index; Copy that file to USB stick, alongside other file sets.
  6. make patch - patches bsd.rd with autoinstall file
  7. Boot from USB stick

Limitations

siteXX file must be copied by hand.
