Folks, I would like to be able to setup my kickstart setup for redhat 7.2 to be as non interactive as possible. Currently I have my ks.cfg on an nfs server doing an nfs install. It works well but It still asks quite a bit of info before starting the gui and going noninteractive. 1. I am booting from a floppy using the bootnet.img 2. I type "linux ks=nfs:137.236.77.83:/root/redhat7.2/ks.cfg" at the prompt. is there a way to get rid of this needed command? ) 3. Next is asks about my language. Can I eliminate this question? 4. Next it asks about my keyboard. I throught I had this in my ks.cfg file. How can I get rid of this question? 5. Next it asks what media type contains the packages. Can I eliminate this question? 6. It now asks about my tcpip settings.. I thought it used dhcp? 7. Next it asks for an nfs server to use.. isnt this contained in my ks.cfg file it already got? "install nfs --server 137.236.77.83 --dir /root/redhat7.2 I am throughly confused on how to make this install totally non interactive. I just want to be able to put in a floppy and boot. Any help you can offer would be appriciated. My ks.cfg file is included below..
