Hi,
There are quite a few developers that have been using linuxmint as their OS for some time. We have a few machines we are looking to install mint on. I have a pxeboot server that currently is used for kickstarting centos/rhel servers. I did some configuration with it to build mint, but the "Installation Type" screen comes up during the process. Is there a way to properly configure the pxeboot server, or the preseed file to automatically "Erase disk and install Linux Mint" with LVM?

Re: pxeboot with unattended linuxmint install
Not really. I already have a pxe server. I'm able to pxeboot other flavors of linux. Is it better to create a preseed file, or do a kickstart file? I tried working with the preseed, but it seems like the preseed file is being ignored when dealing with mint. I am able to get past the language screen, but I'm unable to get past the installation type screen where I would like it to choose to "Erase Disk and install Linux Mint" and use LVM. But it's waiting for manual selection.

Hello everybody,
I can not figure out from this post if an unattended install for linux mint works and how, does it support kickstarter to the same amount as ubuntu?

Where is the official documentation for automatic unattended installations from a pxe server with ubuntu mint? I would like to deploy a +50 workstations with Linux Mint unattended from pxe.
