Is it possible to embed more than one kickstart that will match the installation interface's MAC address. What I want is to use boot system using virtual CD (using iLO) to install multiple systems but matching kickstart conf file will be used with the matching MAC address. > I embed multiple ks files in the initrd then use ks=file:filename.cfg > > This is a simple script I use to copy all of the files in my configs > folder into the initrd: > > mv initrd.img initrd.img.gz > gunzip initrd.img.gz > mount -o loop initrd.img /mnt/init/ > cp --reply=yes configs/* /mnt/init/ > umount /mnt/init/ > gzip initrd.img > mv initrd.img.gz initrd.img > > I then make a new .iso image like thus: > mkisofs -o boot.iso -b isolinux.bin -c boot.cat -no-emul-boot > -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -R -J -v -T isolinux/ > > and you are off and running. > > In our environment, the files MUST be embedded in the initrd due to the > use of virtual media (.iso images mapped over the network), we can't > simply drop them onto the CD and access them. > > Chip > > -----Original Message----- > From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of > dadembro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Sent: Friday, February 10, 2006 10:17 AM > To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Can multiple kickstart files be added to cdrom > > Can I install linux from cdrom and specify the file name to use. > > I have been using something like the following boot command with an > external usb zip drive. > > linux ks=hd:sda4/my_ks.cfg > > I know about the linux ks=cdrom command, but it does not look like I can > include a file name. > Some instructions I have been referring to indicate it has to be named > ks.cfg > > Thanks, > ---d.dembrow > > _______________________________________________ > 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 > -- Omer Faruk Sen http://www.faruk.net
