Thanks, I'll give this a try.

Hello,

Whenever I have to install a new virtual machine I usually use dd or even more often copy the files of a preinstalled distribution skeleton... it works. But, the disadvantage of this is that I have to first install at least one on a real machine before I can grab the files and start deploying virtually ... is there some way to boot directly from an install CD and install the VM just as if it was a real machine with a CD-ROM drive?

Hello,
i've written a small script, which installes a machine via debootstrap.
It's attached. Maybee it is usefull for you. It's neither very good
testet nor may it work for every environment. So far, Matze

Sorry if this is something trivial - I looked in the documentation and but I just can't find how to do it for some reason.

Thank you,
Tomas
