This looks like it is telling you that it cannot find the media for the installation. > I am fairly certain that anaconda is finding my ks.cfg file, because if > I give it a bogus path, such as: > linux ks=cdrom:/foo.bar > I get an Error window with the message "Cannot find kickstart file on > CDROM." > > Has anyone successfully used kickstart with Fedora Core 2?

This has been discussed many times on the fedora-list and the fedora-test-list. I haven't had a problem yet booting from test2, but you are certainly not alone. I have successfully used kickstart, but I don't have the non-booting CD-ROM problem, so that may be the difference. > - The current anaconda genhdlist program wants to write to RedHat/base > rather than Fedora/base.

Agreed. I thought I filed a bugzilla report, but I cannot find it. Test3 should be out soon, so I'll put this in bugzilla if it is not in test3. Forrest
