I just started using the http based kickstart install. Done via the
kickstart url option. I have installed a couple of SL5.1 systems
successfully and tried today to install a SL4.6 machine. I boot the system
with the disc1 iso image and provide the kickstart file via NFS. Like so:
boot: linux ks=nfs:installserver.my.net:/SL/46/ks/myks
In my kickstart file I specify our local SL mirror as the install server.
Like so:
url --url http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/scientific-linux/46/i386
Works for 5.1 but not for 4.6. I've attached the Alt-F2 screen. Can
someone provide some pointer on how to debug this? How do I go about
isolating the problem?
I can revert back to using my old method which is an NFS based install. But
http based installs are so convenient especially since we have high-speed
access to a local SL mirror.
Thanks!
