you might want to look for alternatives here, maybe
http://theforeman.orgcould be an alternative.

Hi,
I'm using Cobbler on a CentOS 5 machine, using only the command line
tools - I don't use the web interface.
It's working perfectly for me for CentOS builds.
I've been asked to set it up to enable Ubuntu builds and preseeds - so
we can have a fully automated installation procedure for developer
workstations.
Normally I just provide the installer kernel image and initrd, and
then pass a kickstart, which installs over the network from a local
CentOS repo.
I want to do something similar with Ubuntu. I've dropped the kernel
image and initrd in place, and Cobbler finds these and launches the
installer. However, how do I get the preseed to be picked up? I
tried just passing it in as
--kickstart=/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/my.preseed, but that didn't
seem to have any impact at all.
How can I do this?
Thanks,
S.
