RE: redhat install

This email is a bit unclear.  The Redhat gui installation is easy point an
click and allows user environment changes.  If you are looking to make a
kickstart type automated installation for different machines.  You could
simply create the kickstart files in advance save them to a shared location
and make sure the users are aware of this location and there
machine/kickstart_file name, see The Official Red Hat Linux Customization
Guide.  If you are talking thousands of machines you will want to script the
kickstart file creation procedure, see CERNs AIMS system.  You can go
further and setup bootp/dhcp so that the mac address of the NIC determines
the kickstart file used.  Kickstart is a very powerful system and the fact
that you can create custome distrobutions of RedHat means just about
anything is possible.
