Hi folks, I don't know if I'm too happy with the 9 changes in kickstart...especially since as a newbie ks geek I'd just figured out 8.0. Anyway...so here's the deal.... I've set up my new 9 nfs server and used bootdisk.img to ks my parallel machines...but I keep getting this nasty message about needing drivers etc... I made a cd that contains all of the various information that it needs for its drivers but...it seems to me that defeats the purpose of kickstart doesn't it? The reason I got into ks was to get it set up so that when my research students crash their system I can tell them to pop in the floppy and hit reboot. Now I have to tell them pop in a floppy AND a CD and hit reboot? If some of you folks have a better approach please let me know. Thanks, -C F.
