Automatic installation of packages / drivers

Hello all!

Here is my situation, frequently I have to replicate systems, using jumpstart
/ flash install, from one machine to another, not necesssarily the same class
box. The majority of the issues I have are quite simple driver issues, but
definatly cost me a lot of time.

My idea is this, when booting to a cd or network image into single user mode
the system which comes up detects the devices and loads the appropriate
drivers. I would like to do this same soft of thing on a newly restored
system. Essentially, restore the flash archive onto the disk, then run
'whatever' to detect and load the appropriate drivers.

Even if I cannot load the drives automatically, how could I tell what I need
to load so I can do it later?

TIA,

Chad Johnson
