Hi, Can anyone tell me the answers to the following: 1. Which files do I need tp copy from the update img disk to RHupdates - just the stuff from imgdiskmount/usr/lib/anaconda/*.py or what? 2. Do rpms placed in RHupdates also get installed instead of the initial source tree ones and if so would this include the kernel. 3a. I am using kickstart over nfs at the moment to single cpu dell optiplex and precision workstations. The machines get their numbers and the location of the nfs server (which houses the kickstart file) from dhcp tied to hardware address. This works very well except for the tedium of having to use boot floppies to get an OS on the machine each time. I have tried to get the machines to boot using the red hat pxe server and also bootp (on a bootp server known to be working with solaris clients). I have done this by disabling all the boot devices in the system bios except network - but this doesn't work. On boot the client collects it's ip from dhcp and will even read the first 512bytes from tftpboot - but nothing else happens. Has anyone got a pxe server to work with Dell hardware and if so can they give me some more information? 3b. As an extension to this, I am going to need to be able to kickstart some dual cpu machines quite soon - I have not attempted this before and I am wondering if there any issues given that ideally you want two kernels installed, the smp one and the normal one.
