Description

This is a duplicate of rdar://22557955

Summary: The new startosinstall binary included with OS X 10.11 by default requires user interaction to accept the license agreement, and while an option exists to pre-accept this license agreement, it is not documented.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Obtain the Beta 7 "Install OS X" app.
  2. Run the following command:

sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ El\ Capitan\ Developer\ Beta.app/Contents/Resources/startosinstall

Expected Results: The option which allows a user to pre-accept the license agreement (and thus more easily wrap this utility with a script), "--nointeraction", is listed in the Arguments section of the usage output.

Actual Results:

Usage output is displayed with the supported arguments, but "--nointeraction" is missing.

Arguments --volume, a path to the target volume. --applicationpath, a path to copy of the OS installer application to start the install with. --license, prints the user license agreement only. --usage, prints this message.

Regression: None. startosinstall is a new utility in OS X 10.11.

Notes: The --license option also does not seem to work currently. Only the usage output is displayed.
