Hi,

When I try to install SL5 x86_64 (or i386) using kickstart with  
installation from NFS server.
I am getting the following error message:

The Scientific Linux Installation tree in that directory does not  
seem to match your boot media.

I booted from a SL5 CD1 or DVD

linux ks=nfs:myNFSserver:/mydir/SL5/x86_64

I had used the same procedure on many systems for SL4.x without any  
problem.  I mirrored the SL5 x86_64 and i386 directory using Rsync  
from ANL.

Does anyone know what I need to do differently to do NFS kickstart  
installation for SL5?
