Joseph, Michael

I'm the first to admit my python skills aren't great, so I'm pleased to see an improvements.
I have made some updates to the updates that Dave H had made to the action_buildiso.py.

Here is the list of my updates: (P.S. I am new to python so if my coding sucks, please bear with me)

1. reordered the build iso menu so that systems are first.
How about second with a seperator between the profiles and the systems, or otherwise a 2-level menu that lets you pick first "profiles" or "systems"?
I really like seing the profiles on the CD as well as the system. This allows me to carry out some diagnostics against the profiles if I screw up the systems entries. I'd be please to see what the code looked like to have a two level menu - if only as a selfish learning exercise.


2. Did not understand why we rely on DHCP when you have a "System". So I have added the networking information to the kernel line for systems, thus eliminating the need for DHCP. (This is what I needed in the boot iso).
This sounds good.
I think this is my poor understanding of how this works. I didn't want to rely on dhcp either - I just couldn't workout how to append an IP address. This answers for me a problem I saw today.
Should the broadcast address be added as well? For completeness?


Dave
