I am no programmer but packstack has taken 2 years or more to get
where it
is today by a team of developers (well definitely more than one :) ). I
would not assume a single person can get anything reasonably close to that
in one summer.
from a sysadmin point of view, i'd think a kickstart file with a post
install section containing the path to packstack and the parameters needed
would be the method i'd use to deploy what you want. you can translate that
into anaconda syntax/language/format if you like
packstack works quite well for non-HA, single node installs.
If you want to eliminate internet access after the OS install
- kickstart a minimal base
- login & rpm -qa | sort > pkgfile
- set the yum cache to save all yum installed packages
- run packstack & anything else you need to install
- save all the packages from the yum cache
- add the rpms listed in the pkgfile to that store
- run createrepo against it to create your private repo
Now kickstart another base
put the private repo somewhere
create a repo file pointing at the private with file://
I'd suggest putting the original repo files on, but disabled. If you need
a yum update beyond what's on the DVD, you can enable them and get them
over the net as needed.
