I've probably done roughly 60 network based installes since RHL9 became available. Most of them are PXE boot/kickstart based, pulling content over NFS. We haven't had any issues. What is this "boot.iso" image you speak of? We used the first CD a few times, before I got PXE setup, and later we used the vmlinuz and initrd.img files provided on the first CD for PXE booting. -- Jesse Keating RHCE MCSE http://geek.j2solutions.net Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) Was I helpful?
