Hi,
We have been having some problems getting a Kickstart install to be 100% automated. We are PXE booting the system which then fetches the Kickstart file from a remote NFS share. However, the system we're installing to has 2 network devices and the installer always pops up and asks us which device it should use before fetching the Kickstart file. Manually selecting a device moves the install along just fine but we need this to be automated. I have tried adding the following:
network ksdevice=eth0 ip=dhcp
to the kernel parameters but the installer simply hangs at the "running /sbin/loader" line. The other virtual consoles don't show anything interesting either. Console 3 shows "* getting kickstart file" and console 4 just shows messages about the interfaces coming online. Here's some details on our environment:
- RedHat Enterprise AS 3 Update 4
- using the pxeboot initrd & kernel from RHEL Disc 1 to get the system booted
Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
