Using kickstart sounds good to me.  I think we should keep separate the different steps:
1. Create a base image of the OS
2. Install the iptel.org apps and dependencies
3. Do local configurations
4. Create deployable virtual machine

If each of these steps are isolated, different people can be responsible for the different steps.

I have reorganized the project page into sections and incorporated lots of input from Jeremy at http://iptel.org/bundle/project
We now need to create a project plan, split into responsibilities, and take some key decisions.
I think one key decision that we have already converged on is: for first version use CentOS5 and create vmware appliance.

Here is the script. Its been a while that we have used it. We might need to modify something. I can look into it later. Let me know if this is something you are looking for.

Preparing Kickstart file is a good idea.

How about running a post installation script in the kickstart file. We have done this a lots on time in FC*. The process should be something like this,

1. Build a default kickstart file that will install all the required packages for all the ser components.

2. The kickstart file have an option to run a post installation script.

3. Now we need to have one zip file of all the components we want to install related to ser. (ser, werbwer, sems, sipp, sppsak etc). That file can be placed either on the CDs or can be downloaded from somewhere. All the components can be packaged in the one zip file of they can be downloaded separately.

4. The script can be interactive.

 

 

yes that will be the idea, for the CD install

 

after install of OS, we can run post install script to compile rest all required for

SER ( or compile already for the same OS Distro and move them directly to the respective Directory)

 

 

BTW I have a small postinstallation shell script like that, and I can share that.

 

post to group, may be if require people may use.

Something like taking a kickstart file and making an installable livecd

from it (something similar to the LiveCD berlios project). I don't KNOW

of one that works to create installable ISOs in CentOS, but I'm sure

there must be... somewhere... maybe....?
