'lo again, --ive been havin no problem w/ kickstart for redhat 7.2 since my last excursion on this list, thanks for the help suggesting portfast on our switches. Worked like a charm. --alas, it is time to move to redhat 7.3, and im having some problems. What seems to be the problem is that when we pxeboot and initiate the kickstart session using a 7.3 base directory instead of the 7.2 base directory, for one reason or another, anaconda doesnt seem to detect our disk drives. We're using a raid array via an ibm serveraid 4lx controller, just as we were with 7.2. We're pxebooting the same kernel and initrd image, --my understanding is that if we didnt change the kernel, we're using, support shouldnt have changed. --hence the confusion. I verified that the problem is with moving to 7.3 from 7.2, because we can kick this machine happily via 7.2. Here's the kickstart file: lang en_US langsupport --default en_US en_US keyboard us mouse --device psaux generic3ps/2 timezone --utc UTC rootpw --iscrypted $1$/váécaMÀ$zn/cnW8rbaf1lIRrgt0oT. #reboot text zerombr yes bootloader --location=mbr install nfs --server 172.16.6.2 --dir /kickstart/ks/redhat/72install clearpart --all --initlabel part / --fstype ext3 --size 1000 part swap --size 1000 part /usr --fstype ext3 --size 5000 part /var --fstype ext3 --size 2000 part /tmp --fstype ext3 --size 1000 part /opt --fstype ext3 --size 6000 network --bootproto dhcp --device eth0 auth --useshadow --enablemd5 firewall --disabled deviceprobe %packages #snip# %pre %post same exact hardware, same kernel. --any ideas? Thanks again, and thanks ahead of time.
