Not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question--let me know if there's a better venue for this. I'm trying to pass kickstart command-line arguments from virt-install via --extra-args. It's not working. Here is the virt-install command I'm using: virt-install \ --name server1 \ --memory 2048 \ --vcpus 2 \ --os-variant "rhel7" \ --disk path=/dev/guest_images_lvm/fest \ --hvm \ --location "nfs:192.168.0.3:/mnt/TANK/software/CentOS/7/BaseInstall" \ --network bridge=br2 \ -nographics \ --extra-args="ks=nfs:192.168.0.3:/mnt/TANK/software/CentOS/7/BaseInstall/ks/ks.DC-VM ip=192.168.0.88::192.168.0.69:255.255.255.0:server1:eth0:none" This fails with the error: virt-install: error: unrecognized arguments: ip=192.168.0.88::192.168.0.69:255.255.255.0:server:eth0:none" I've tried searching the for this error message but can't find any references. Can the --extra-args list have a space character in it? Is that the problem here? I'm using virt-install version 1.5.0 on CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810. Thanks, Carl Carl G.
