Is it possible to create a generic ks.cfg to work for all?
I've just joined this group. I am new to Kickstart. I found this site useful. http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/custom-guide/part-install-info.html
I've tried but I have not understood the what raid.X means....
I think the X is just an arbitrary label for mapping purposes. i.e...I built a machine. two 120 GB disks. RAID1 and Vol grouped. I used RAID 1 for "/". the created a VG and with RAID1 on that. Then I diced the VG up for my filesystems. Here's what the anaconda through into my anaconda-ks.cfg. part raid.24 --size=100 --grow --maxsize=500 --ondisk=hda --asprimary part raid.26 --size=100 --grow --maxsize=500 --ondisk=hdc --asprimary part raid.27 --size=100 --grow --ondisk=hdc part raid.25 --size=100 --grow --ondisk=hda raid / --fstype ext3 --level=RAID1 raid.24 raid.26 raid pv.29 --level=RAID1 raid.25 raid.27 volgroup vg00 pv.29 It appears to start at a number (in my case 24) and continue to increment it for labeling purposes only. It does not appear to be a significance to the number itself. RH expert's please correct me if I am wrong.
Any ideas / tips on how to achieve this?
This page illustrates how you may script your ks to adjust to the given hardware.... http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/custom-guide/s1-kickstart2-preinstallconfig.html I hope this helps.. Good luck. -k
