based on my perusal of a number of alleged tutorials related to how
to configure auto-installation of ubuntu {desktop,server} 24.04+, here
is what seems to be the most straightforward overview:
https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-repackage-an-ubuntu-iso-image-for-autoinstall-using-yaml
i'm about to give that a test run, but it would be just ducky if
someone who's done this before can confirm that, since ubuntu
24.04(?), all that is necessary is to grab a standard ubuntu ISO, open
it up, copy your autoinstall.yaml file into the root directory of the
ISO, then pack it up again using "xorriso" or something similar.
i ask since other tutorials suggested you needed to rebuild grub.cfg
and other files in the ISO, but the tutorial above clearly implies
that all you need to do is add that autoinstall.yaml file, and the
installer will use that if it exists, and you don't need to do any
further configuration.
does that sound about right?
