Problem running kickstart via PXE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have constructed a kickstart installation using PXE as
the bootloader so that I can perform the installation over
the network. Everything works fine except for a problem
with one of the 3 configurations. Although all of the PXE
options are the same except the label and the kickstart
configuration file they use, 1 of the 3 configurations 
refuses to work. Instead of going through the kickstart
successfully like the other 2 configs, it load Disk Druid
and asks me how I want to partition the disks (the
kickstart config file includes directions for doing this).

Here are sections from the PXELINUX config file. The first
works, the 2nd does not.

Working:

LABEL gateway
	kernel	kickstart.rh
	append	ks=nfs:192.168.100.5:/central/pub/kickstart/gateway.cfg
initrd=initrd.img ramdisk_size=10240 network

Failing:

LABEL node
	kernel	kickstart.rh
	append	ks=nfs:192.168.100.5:/central/pub/kickstart/node.cfg
initrd=initrd.img ramdisk_size=10240 network

initrd.img and kickstart.rh are taken off of the RH 6.2
bootdisk.

If anyone can provide any guidance as to what may be out of 
whack, your help is greatly appreciated. Upon request I can
provide the kickstart configuration files as well. Didn't 
want to spam the list tho.

TIA!
