[Bug 1803667] Re: new requirement for Automatic Installation

[vmware-gos-Yuhua]

** Description changed:

- Some linux distributions(such as SLES and redhat) support to scan CD/DVD
- to get the answers file for automatic Installation and there is no need
- to change offical ISO.
+ Some linux distributions(such as SLES and redhat) support to scan the
+ other CD/DVD with OEMDRV label to get the answers file automatically for
+ automatic installation and there is no need to change offical ISO.
  
- But for ubuntu, it's much more complicated and we need to customize the
- offical ISO.
+ But for ubuntu, it's much more complicated and it's different to
+ customize different types of ISOs(ubuntu 18.04-desktop.iso ubuntu
+ 18.04-server.iso, ubuntu 18.04-live-server.iso).
  
- Would ubuntu have any plan to support this way like SLES/redhat to
- install OS automatically ?
