ViciBox8 scratch install

[ngtechnologies]

Ok, i have seen a few topics but not much in the details.

We have been using scratch installed Centos on hosted servers for years, but would like to try the actual ViciBox. We dont have access to run install CD, hence why we have been using Centos install.

Now the question:
If we have Vicibox installed local with access to all the files, which files/dependancies and/or scripts would we need to upload to the hosted server to make the install?

i dont think scrach install is available in vicibox, you have to share iso with your colo team to install it on your server or use IMPI access

Better idea: Install locally, get the OS version. Install that OS with the colocation facilities tool(s). They usually have OpenSuSE as an option.

Get the installed package list from the locally installed version and add all those packages to your remote system. Also (perhaps first) match the repository listings.

Then use the vicibox-install script as a starting point. It will contain references to all the files you need and the step by step instructions for the installation.
