Sheep launching
Launch sheep using sheep-live
This first way to launch sheep makes the process run fully automated. It is documented in sheep-live documentation
Execution without kernel parameters command line
Reading variables through /proc/cmdline is good for deployment automation, especially when booting a live distribution from the network as an installation environment.
However, we are able to run Sheep passing parameters directly to the script because there are no reason to enforce this way of doing. We are be able to pass parameters even if it was not previoulsy configured in the kernel parameter line.
It's also usefull for testing purpose during development because we can run different tests without the need of rebooting the machine.
See the example below :
SHEEP_PARAMETERS='sheep.config=http://netserver/ubuntu-16.04-leopard-sheep-cfg.yml' sheep
