Will fix the RPM, thanks.   The proper fix is probably just to chmod the
cobbler_hosts file +r and leave the rest as is.

Think /var/lib/cobbler needs  o+x  otherwise "nobody"  will  not
even be able to look in the directory and see the cobbler hosts
much less read it.

Looks like something I mucked up :)

cobbler import will pick the kernel/initrd from the "os/images/pxe"
directory for
TFTP installs.   If you used "cobbler import" and your distro/profile
didn't contain
the word "Xen" in it, that's the one you are using.   The Xen pair
definitely
probably won't work.    If those don't work, the NIC is probably the
issue -- though
I would kind of expect them to be simulating something relatively
standard.    Could be wrong :)

I'm trying to get things running  VMware, will amost certainly have
to roll my own.
