Hi,

I am assuming my current atftp/dhcp/apache installation is sufficient
to upgrade from RHEL3 to RHEL4 over the network. But I still haven't
figured out how the kickstart file should look like. I at the moment
have this:

upgrade
lang en_US
langsupport --default en_US en_US
keyboard us
mouse none --device null
skipx
firewall --disabled
url --url http://10.1.5.243/rhel4/
reboot

Is that all that is needed? The servers are in a remote datacenter
with no chance of getting a console hooked, so I need to get this
right the first time I try it. :(

Rather you than me!

Is there not even the chance of a serial console? cause you can kick-start happily over that!

I'm not sure if I'd want to do a kickstart upgrade without access to at least one terminal!

My advice would be to set one up locally, test it, then change the details and try the ones in the datacenter.

Thanks,

Phil
