RE: NFS mount failed

How can I do a chkconfig in kickstart?  I know the NFS share is correct,
other machines can mount it properly...

I tried the method of specifying ks=nfs:... With the same results.  

After doing some searching, I found other posts from people having
similar problems, they determined it was a timing issue, but I don't
know if that's really the case or not.

Hi Ryan,

did you do a chkconfig nfs on? 

I think you must enter the full Path to the ks.cfg-file:linux
ks=nfs:server.example.com:/mydir/ks.cfg

Martin
