Sure, method= (or stage2=/repo= if you're using F13 or RHEL6 beta). You'd do something like method=nfs:your.server.here:/mnt/wherever Keep in mind if your path plus other parameters is too long, you're going to run up against a size limit and arguments will start getting trimmed or dropped. So if you start to see pretty weird behavior, it might be time to switch to a kickstart file. > Also I know when doing KickStart installs, you can use ks-device=eth1 to > avoid being prompted for the network device when there is more than one. > Can I use this same option so that the interactive user doesn't have to > know which eth to pick? > > On a related note, is there a way to have anaconda figure out which > interface the PXE boot booted the machine on and just go with that one? > Right now I need to make 2 different PXE boot config files for the 2 > types of machines I have because one boots on eth0 and the other on eth1. ksdevice=bootif - Chris _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
