Hi, the official Red Hat Enterprise Linux System Administration Guide devotes two chapters to Kickstart. Its available in both PDF and HTML form directly from Red Hat. Here is the URL to the HTML version: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/sysadmin-guide/ Take a look at chapters 1 and 2. Don't forget that some things don't work with RHEL 2.1 like they do with 3 and 4 (most importantly RHEL 2.1 doesn't support the %include tag.)

I got started using the docs that come with Anaconda, under /usr/share/doc iirc. hth, Klaus _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
