Any Shurdix supported boot media can be used for installation. Usually it is the official ISO image, but you can boot from e.g. an USB stick too.

Tested bootloaders are grub (harddisk and DoC), isolinux (CD), syslinux (USB-Stick) and lilo (harddisk). The first 2 are integrated into Route Hat, syslinux and lilo you have to set up separately.

The only necessary kernel option is “ramdisk_size=16384”. If you don’t use this one, it will hang.

Detect partitions, start clamd and run destroyvirii.pl.

Don’t search for saved config (start without any config).

Perform autoinstallation. Network access required.

Don’t initalize modules for USB, even if an USB-controller is found.

(variable) Set root device (without partition) for auto-installation.

(variable) You can set root password this way if you are running without a configuration or you forgot it.

(variable) set preferrerd devices for searching for config. Can be a comma separated list. Only handles devices, not partitions, partitions are ignored. Also you don’t have to use the leading /dev/. Example: hda,sda to look first on /dev/hda’s partitions, then on /dev/sda’s and then on the other devices present on the system.

Don’t initialize network interfaces (i.e. don’t call ifup on any device). Autodetected modules are still loaded.

Don’t use this, hardcoded and undocumented and may overwrite your partitions.

Don’t load modules for soundcards and tv-cards

Don’t look for DiskOnChip

Ignore this module(s) on autodetection.
