I boot from floppy Then at the boot prompt: linux ks=http://x.x.x.x/dirs/test.fs.cfg dd (when I do not supply a driver disk the system forces me to manually choose one as it complains that it is unable to find devices of the type needed for this installation.) when asked, I insert the drvnet.img floppy to chose the network card driver. After I choose the a driver the web server logs shows where the test.ks.cfg file is accessed. The client install still asks for the nfs server though, but all the other options as far as partitioning and package options are read from the Kickstart file correctly. Its interesting that I just realized that the NIC driver I choose at installtion time is not the one that the system uses when it is completely installed. It seems then the root of the problem is correctly supplying the correct NIC driver for the system. -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Shabazian, Chip Sent: Thursday, October 27, 2005 12:45 PM To: Discussion list about Kickstart Subject: RE: nfs kickstart network install I too don't use the = although the documentation says you can.... Is the ONLY interactive prompt you are getting for the nfs source? Specifically, are you getting network information prompts as well? How are you loading your kickstart? NFS? HTTP? Floppy? Embeded? The nfs option does NOT have to be in any particular place, as long as it's in the command section. In our kickstart file, it's actually the first uncommented line so that admins don't have to look past the first 10 lines of the kickstart file if they wish to make changes. -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Elizabeth.Brosch@xxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, October 27, 2005 10:39 AM To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: nfs kickstart network install This may not even be an issue but I have my entry as: nfs --server 10.xxx.xxx.xxx --dir /usr/osdist/rhas4 notice I do not have "=". _______________________________________________ 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
