"The problem is that it can not find the location for the ks.cfg defined in your "default" file located in your pxelinux.cfg directory. I have found this problem can be resolved by using the pxeboot vmlinuz .img files located on the RH distro you are trying to install." This is what the "default" file looks like: DEFAULT csm LABEL csm LOCALBOOT 0 Should there be an entry in there pointing to a location? Also, here are what the HEX files look like from the /tftboot/pxelinux.cfg directory. This is the one that will get to the text install before returning the "ks.cfg file could not be found" error: (I've replaced IP addresses with x) # Install SERIAL 1 9600 DEFAULT csm LABEL csm KERNEL csm/ks7.2z APPEND root=/dev/ram mem=128M ks=nfs:xxx.xx.x.x:/csminstall/csm/1.2.0/kickstart.RedHat7.2/xxx.xx.x.x-kickstart initrd=csm/ks7.2.gz This is the version of the file that will boot up, and give the error "uncompressing linux...ok, booting the kernel" and hang. # Install SERIAL 1 9600 DEFAULT csm LABEL csm KERNEL csm/ks7.2z APPEND root=/dev/ram mem=128M console=ttyS1,9600 ks=nfs:xxx.xx.x.x:/csminstall/csm/1.2.0/kickstart.RedHat7.2/xxx.xx.x.x-kickstart initrd=csm/ks7.2.gz As you can see, the only change I've made is removing the console attribute in the APPEND statement. I'm fairly new to the linux/unix world, and I'm running out of ideas quickly. Any other tips anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks, Haley
