NAME

lcfg-install - LCFG install component

DESCRIPTION

This component controls which components are called at install time.

RESOURCES

installmethods

A list of install method tags to call in sequence to install a machine.

imethod_tag

The install method associated with tag. Each method can be either an LCFG component call (to be passed to om) or one of the following built-in operators.

In the following, targetroot is the path to the root of the target system.

%configclock% targetroot

Configures the /etc/sysconfig/clock file of the target system.

%gettime% rdate|ntpdate timeservers

Sets the system time using either rdate or ntpdate. timeservers is a list of servers to query.

%setclock%

Sets the hardware clock from the current system time.

%umount% targetroot

Attempts to unmount all mounted filesystems under targetroot.

%settz% targetroot

Creates the target system's /etc/localtime link. See the timezone resource.

%oneshot% param

Will eval the shell string param. The use of this operator is seriously frowned upon; it should only be used for development purposes.

utc

If this value is set to yes, indicates that the hardware clock is kept in UTC. Set to no if not. Is used both for the %configclock% built-in for setting the target system's /etc/sysconfig/clock file and by the %setclock% built-in for setting the current time.

clockflags

Used to specify extra flags to the hwclock command used by the SetClock method.

timezone

This configures the timezone for the target system by linking the specified /usr/share/zoneinfo file to /etc/localtime.

PLATFORMS
