Hi all, Just starting to play around with RHEL5.2 servers in our
environment and am coming up with a strange kickstart issue. I have narrowed it
down to the following scenario: Build a HP 385 server, using a RHEL5.2 DVD cut from a
downloaded ISO, and the kickstart file located on a USB stick. After the initial
build, the server reboots, the DVD and USB stick are manually removed and right
where the GRUB screen should be displayed, I get a screen that looks like a
kernel panic screen, though starts with the line “Illegal OPCODE”
and then a bunch of hex output. If I build the server without the USB stick but using the
same kickstart file (copied to the DVD) it works fine. Thinking that the USB stick (/dev/sda) was being
incorporated into the build process (LVM), I added the line: “ignoredisk --drives=sda,sdb,sdc,sdd,sde,sdf”
to the kickstart script. This did not fix the issue. I then added the line: “part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=200
-- forcing /boot to be created on the internal
raid disk, which also failed the fix the issue. I did watch the <F4>
screen during the last build process and I know that /boot is created on
/dev/cciss/c0d0 (HP raid) and the partition information on the USB stick
appears to be unchanged (i.e. not formatted). So I am at a loss as to what else
I could check. I do know the exact same kickstart script, server, usb stick
combination builds a RHEL4.6 server without any problems. Has anyone else seen
this or have any ideas? Thanks. "This email (including any attachments) is confidential.
