Hi, I am trying to do a kickstart install using a bootable floppy disk with the ks.cfg file on it. It is then instructed to look to a FTP server for the install files. I have produced a proper boot disk using an up-to-date boot.img file and I am using a modified SYSLINUX.CFG file to call the ks.cfg file. My problem is that the ks.cfg file is not bee looked at....the install process seems to bypass it. Can anybody see what I am doing wrong? I have listed my SYSLINUX.CFG and ks.cfg files below. Thanks, Ross I have edited the SYSLINUX.CFG to say: default ks prompt 0 label ks kernel vmlinuz append ks=floppy initrd=initrd.img vga=788 My ks.cfg file is: lang en langsupport --default en_US en_US network --device eth0 --bootproto static --ip 10.0.0.100 --netmask 255.255.255.0 --gateway --hostname demo.antivirus.ie url url-- ftp://user:password@xxxxxxxxx/dist keyboard uk clearpart --all --initlabel part / --fstype ext3 --size 5000 --grow part swap --size 2000 mouse generic3ps/2 --device psaux timezone --utc Europe/Dublin skipx rootpw --iscrypted $1$UXCiu.au$dqnCRkRkxWRw6eau91FJ01 auth --useshadow --enablemd5 lilo --location mbr zerombr yes firewall --high --port smtp:tcp --port ssh:tcp install %packages cpp perl perl-suidperl compat-libstdc++ openssh-server libtiff libungif perl-Time-HiRes esound ncftp lynx rdate openssh-askpass-gnome libjpeg gcc gnome-libs imlib libstdc++-devel zip pine freetype gtk+ unzip gd audiofile traceroute wget make telnet binutils libpng openssh-askpass gcc-c++ ORBit openssh XFree86-libs glibc-kernheaders openssh-clients glibc-develcpp perl perl-suidperl compat-libstdc++ openssh-server libtiff libungif perl-Time-HiRes esound ncftp lynx rdate openssh-askpass-gnome libjpeg gcc gnome-libs imlib libstdc++-devel zip pine freetype gtk+ unzip gd audiofile traceroute wget make telnet binutils libpng openssh-askpass gcc-c++ ORBit openssh XFree86-libs glibc-kernheaders openssh-clients glibc-develcpp perl perl-suidperl compat-libstdc++ openssh-server libtiff libungif perl-Time-HiRes esound ncftp lynx rdate openssh-askpass-gnome libjpeg gcc gnome-libs imlib libstdc++-devel zip pine freetype gtk+ unzip gd audiofile traceroute wget make telnet binutils libpng openssh-askpass gcc-c++ ORBit openssh XFree86-libs glibc-kernheaders openssh-clients glibc-develcpp perl perl-suidperl compat-libstdc++ openssh-server libtiff libungif perl-Time-HiRes esound ncftp lynx rdate openssh-askpass-gnome libjpeg gcc gnome-libs imlib libstdc++-devel zip pine freetype gtk+ unzip gd audiofile traceroute wget make telnet binutils libpng openssh-askpass gcc-c++ ORBit openssh XFree86-libs glibc-kernheaders openssh-clients glibc-develcpp perl perl-suidperl compat-libstdc++ openssh-server libtiff libungif perl-Time-HiRes esound ncftp lynx rdate openssh-askpass-gnome libjpeg gcc gnome-libs imlib libstdc++-devel zip pine freetype gtk+ unzip gd audiofile traceroute wget make telnet binutils libpng openssh-askpass gcc-c++ ORBit openssh XFree86-libs glibc-kernheaders openssh-clients glibc-develcpp perl perl-suidperl compat-libstdc++ openssh-server libtiff libungif perl-Time-HiRes esound ncftp lynx rdate openssh-askpass-gnome libjpeg gcc gnome-libs imlib libstdc++-devel zip pine freetype gtk+ unzip gd audiofile traceroute wget make telnet binutils libpng openssh-askpass gcc-c++ ORBit openssh XFree86-libs glibc-kernheaders openssh-clients glibc-devel %post
