Hi Chris, in the dhcpd.conf file we have filename "/export/n_os/ks/"; next-server A.B.C.D; where A.B.C.D is the NFS host. I'm happy to file a bugzilla report if you don't think it is a misconfiguration on my part. thanks iain -- Iain Morrison IT Manager MRC Epidemiology Unit Institute of Metabolic Science Box 285 Addenbrooke's Hospital Hills Road Cambridge CB2 0QQ Tel 01223 769200 -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Chris Lumens Sent: 15 August 2011 15:33 To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: ks file not found via dhcp > 09:24:38,293 DEBUG : activating device eth2 > 09:24:45,305 INFO : wait_for_iface_activation (2274): device eth2 > activated > 09:24:45,317 ERROR : no bootserver was found That's the problem right there. This is printed out in the getFileFromNfs function, specifically in the path of looking for the implicit kickstart file location. It means the following is failing: server_name = nm_dhcp4_config_get_one_option(dhcp, "server_name"); if (!server_name) { logMessage(ERROR, "no bootserver was found"); g_object_unref(client); return 1; } I wonder if that DHCP option even exists, or if this is a problem with the NM bindings, or what. Could you file a bug about this? - Chris _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
