You need to use the diskboot.img file on your USB key, but be aware that this will wipe it out: dd if=diskboot.img of=/dev/sda (assuming sda is your USB drive) I'm assuming RHEL 4 -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Robert Denton Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 9:45 AM To: Discussion list about Kickstart Subject: Kickstarting from a USB Flash Drive? Hi all. I have a question regarding my kickstart setup that may be a bit out of the scope of this discussion list but I'll give it a try: Currently, I boot new systems to a USB-CDROM drive that has the first install cd in it. I then type: linux ks=http://..... at the boot prompt. I'd love to be able to do the same thing but from a USB Flash Drive (2 gig Corsair Flash Voyager). So I copied the contents of the 1st install cd to the flash drive. Unfortaunately all the boot options in the BIOS don't seem to recognize the USB flash drive. Any suggestions? Thanks! _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
