Hi List,
I've attempted to follow the instructions for setting up Cobbler to
support kickstarting virtual (xen) installs. I'm invoking the
kickstart via the "ks" alias, defined as follows:
alias ks='koan --virt --profile=centos5virt --server=172.16.16.1'
Here's a look at the setup:
[root@mosxato ~]# cobbler list
distro centos5-i386
distro centos5-i386-xen
profile centos5virt
system default
repo centos4-i386
repo centos5-i386
[root@mosxato ~]# ip addr show dev eth0
7: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue

My kickstarts are hanging here:

md: bitmap version 4.39

Freeing unused kernel memory: 168k freed

Can anyone see what I have done wrong? The only part I'm not too sure
about is the 172.16.x.x network I've setup via iproute2. It seems
right but its been a while. I just need a rfc1918 address space to
create the VMs.
Thanks.
