If you are using the "linux askmethod", YES, you should be able to boot from CD and use http/ftp install trees. I've done it for years (just moved to USB memory sticks as they are more convenient). > I don't have PXE in my environment > If I would like to boot a raw box and ask it to use kickstart file and > install tree on a http server > what should I do, Could you give me some suggestions? I think you're on the right track. Is there any error reported in the KS logs or on the HTTP server? While I typically use FTP, there's virtually no difference in using HTTP. > I havn't used the netboot.iso image you mentioned. > Is it possible to create a bootable CD with netboot.iso? Yes, the netboot.iso is specifically made to make a bootable CD and do what you are trying to do. Just burn it to a CD, like any other iso. > > Thanks > Lei --- Cris -- Cristopher J.
