To all,
We have been using lilo in redhat 9 and we did the following:
image=/kickstart/vmlinuz
label=Office-Install
initrd=/kickstart/initrd.img
append="ks=nfs:hostname:/free/redhat/kickstart/generic.ks.cfg"
For Grub:
I'm trying to do the following, and it starts to kickstart but doesn't
find the kick start file.
title Install
root (hd0,1)
kernel /vmlinuz ro root=LABEL=/kickstart1
initrd /initrd.img
append ksdevice=eth0 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,38400 \
ks=nfs:hostname:/free/FC6/kickstart/generic.ks.cfg
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong, it starts to kickstart and
fails to find the kickstart file.
Thanks

What you're doing looks right. When it fails give it the ip and path
to the install media. At that point you can switch to tty2 and cat
/proc/cmdline to make sure you don't have any typos.
When you say it doesn't find the kick start do you mean:
1) it didn't modprobe the ethernet module?
2) it didn't get an ip address from dhcp?
3) it failed to mount the nfs module?
4) the path was wrong?
5) the permisions were wrong and it couldn't read the file?
You should be able to tell a bunch of the information by looking on tty3.
