I changed the URL line in my ks.cfg to this: url --url http://10.9.5.72:8080/kickstart Under the kickstart directory on that webserver is mounted disk 1 of the RedHat 7.2 distribution (i.e. http://10.9.5.72:8080/kickstart/RedHat/ is a valid directory). The third VT now adds the following lines to the log of what loader is trying to do, right after it sets the hostname) * url address 10.9.5.72:8080 * url prefix /kickstart * copying file to fd 11 * wrote 7 339549 bytes * transferring http://10.9.5.72:8080//kickstart/RedHat/base/netstg1.img to a fd * transferring http://10.9.5.72:8080//kickstart/disc1/RedHat/base/netstg1.img to a fd and then on the main VT I get an error dialog that says "File /kickstart/RedHat/base/netstg1.img not found on server." and then when I click OK "Unable to retrieve the first install image" I can retrieve the netstg1.img file by running 'wget http://10.9.5.72:8080//kickstart/RedHat/base/netstg1.img'. My only guess as to the problem is that the webserver is redirecting the URL because of the double slash and whatever is trying to retrieve it doesn't understand redirects and therefore is failing. The only problem is I can't figure out a way to prevent it from sending a double slash since the double slash is not there in my original URL. Is this maybe a problem because the host component of the URL includes a port specfication? Any suggestions? - John
