Yeah I guess I could. (I'll put the dunce cap on now). Would this be the proper format though? <snip> default linux prompt 0 timeout 0 display boot.msg F1 boot.msg F2 options.msg F3 general.msg F4 param.msg F5 rescue.msg F7 snake.msg label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img ramdisk_size=8192 vnc vncconnect=pigdog.example.com <snip> So I knocked the prompt and timeout to 0 (so that hopefully my cd will just pop into the install with no keyboard interaction) and then added the "vnc vncconnect=pigdog.example.com". In those links They reference "linux vnc vncconnect=pigdog.example.com" -- what is the "linux" for? Do I need that in there as well? I had been all over these docs before, but I think I had just not clued into the syntax. Thanks in advance!
