My kickstart files are getting created with entries lilke this: %post wget http://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd/cobbler_track/repo_mirror/fedoracore6-updates/config.repo --output-document=/etc/yum.repos.d/.repo (note the name of the output document). My python is fairly weak, but it looks like what comes before ".repo" should be given with the --local-file parameter to "cobbler repo add". So I tried it: # cobbler repo add --mirror=rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/6/i386/ --name=fedoracore6-updates --local-file=local-updates this command doesn't take a parameter named '--local-file' # cobbler --help | grep 'repo add' cobbler repo add --name=<string> --mirror=rsync://<address> [--local-file=name] cobbler repo add --name=<string> --mirror=user@address:/path [--local-file=name] What am I missing here? The manpage also suggests that if --local-file is missing then the repo won't be added to /etc/yum.repos.d, but from the above excerpt of the kickstart file, that doesn't appear to be the case. And whilst on the subject, the manpage doesn't mention anything about creating the config.repo file. I'm assuming that's something I have to do manually after syncing the repository. Correct? (Centos 4.4 + cobbler-0.3.9-1 built from the src.rpm, if that's relevant.) James
