Greetings, Thanks in advance for all info. Our task is to install many workstations from a handcrafted system. This is basically a automated cloning job. We prefer not to use DHCP. This task was done fairly easy when we used Solaris, and HPUX (I had JumpStart, and Ignite setup). While I think KickStart could do the same thing, I am not sure how easy it could be setup. Any thoughts on unforeseen problems? BTW, we will use RedHat4 (both AS and ES). Thanks, -ltran
