Hello Johannes,

I've looked over the help of mksusecd. It seems to do automatically what
I did by my own script.
But:
- I have modified isolinux.cfg which special boot entrys for different
hardware. Same for the grub2. Are they overwritten when I use mksusecd?
- The content is signed with a gpg key which is protected by a
passphrase. With my script I use gpg via batchmode and it gets the
passphrase from a textfile. Does mksusecd support that scenario?
- mksusecd need root privilegs, my script runs as user.

That are the stumbling blocks I figured out till now.
Who is the maintainer of that script? Looks great so far.


Regards

Daniel
