What version/update are you building
from?
Can you access the nfs mount if installing manually (not
doing ks on the boot line)?

Subject: Kickstart fails mounting nfs source
All:
I have some old HP
DL140s that I need to install. The NICs on these servers do not support
PXE therefore I have to boot from CDROM. Once booted I key in "ks" and the
server obtains its network information from DHCP but then immediately
fails. I see an error on the console" mount: bad file number".
When I hit F3 I see that the real error is "failed to mount nfs source".
Has anyone
successfully kickstarted a server by using NFS instead of
PXE?
Thanks in
advance.
