Hi, all --
I'm back again. I still have problems trying to kickstart from the hard
drive instead of from a floppy. Let's see if I can summarize what I've
done so far...
Following Forrest's instructions, I opened up initrd.img and copied in
my ks.cfg file and zipped it back up again. I copied that, my bootnet
vmlinuz kernel, and the syslinux.cfg file over into /boot. My lilo.conf
entry looks like
image=/boot/vmlinuz-kickstart
label=kick
initrd=/boot/initrd.img-kickstart
read-only
root=/dev/sda1
add:
append="ks=file:/ks.cfg console=ttyS0,9600n8"
to your lilo.conf and forget about the syslinux, you don't need it
and my syslinux file looks like
default kick
label kick
kernel vmlinuz-kickstart
append ks=file:/ks.cfg initrd=initrd.img-kickstart.gz
console=ttyS0,9600n8
but it doesn't really make sense to me how syslinux comes into play or
how the system knows to look to the ks.cfg file.
