I am a Linux Admin in training, and I have been given a task to modify
my companies SLES9 boot cd to load VMware, Broadcom and Intel Pro 1000
network drivers at boot. We are implementing a class'd AutoYaST system,
and this is the first step, however, I have not been able to edit the
initrd to accomplish this. I have been scouring the web to find
something, but have been unable. Can anyone point me in the right
direction? Also, just a note, we currently use info files on a mounted
or boot floppy for the drivers, but we want to get rid of them period.
