Perhaps this isn't the best list for this question, but I can't really think of any other place to send it. For those that don't know, the F15 installer's initrd is many times larger than that of previous versions. This is due to the fact that the installer no longer downloads a stage2 image over the net and instead just has everything available from the beginning. That's all fine and good, but I have many servers that I install by using the web-based admin console to SMB-mount an ISO image containing isolinux and a vmlinuz/initrd pair. The transfer rate is glacial, and I estimate that it will take well over an hour just to load the initrd that way. (It takes ten minutes to load the F14 installer, and that's already somewhat painful when trying to do testing.) I cannot use PXE as I do not control the DHCP server. Does anyone have any hints as to how I might be able to do reasonable installs now? Is there some sort of PXE-like client I could boot from a CD that would let me grab an vmlinuz/initrd pair from a specified location over the network? - J< _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
