How does one use virt-install and kickstart ? I've seen others have success but I've had no joy thus far. BTW, my interactive virt-installs for centos6 guests work just fine AND I can do unattended kickstarts for vms by booting from centos6 install dvd and typing the kickstart commands from the boot: prompt. However, kickstart commands in --extra-args when used w/ virt-install just

Hi All, This has to be something simple....but it's really busting my chops. We have a PXE boot server that is used for initial installation of a number of operating systems and it works well. However the CentOS 5.1 x86_64 install is seriously broken. We've made the PXE boot images available from "centos/5/os/x86_64/images/pxeboot/" in the tftp boot etc. We've rsynced

Attempting to PXE boot from the BaseOS/x86_64/kickstart/images/pxeboot/ files results in repeating messages Invalid or corrupt kernel image eventually changing to Could not find kernel image: centos8.2.x86_64/vmlinuz I downloaded the files again, from a different mirror, and they are all the same.

I'm trying to set up a fully-virtualised CentOS 3.9 guest under 5.3 using kickstart. This doesn't work at all with a text-only install: virt-install -r 384 -n $host -f $dev -v \ -l $loc \ -x ks=http://$kssrv/centos3.ks \ -m $mac --nographics The installer just sits there and hangs after creating the domain. # virt-install ...

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me with this, I have been trying to get a vm up and running for a while now and cant for the life of me work out why it isnt working. The errors I get arnt very helpful and im at a loss as how to debug this any further. Here is the command and output that I get...(Also nothing shows up with virsh list --all after so its starting to install then dropping out) Hope

Hello, maybe I''m stupid but I find no way to have the kernel in Dom0 instead of DomU for Centos 5. Here is what I did: Regular Centos 5 Dom0 install, then creating a LVM group (vms) and install DomU with virt-install works perfectly: virt-install --p --location=http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5/os/i386 --file=/dev/vms/centos5_data --name=centos5 --ram=512 --nographics I get a

Hi, I''m kinda new to XEN stuff, and I''ve been trying to create a fully virtualized guest on CentOS 5.3 for almost 3 months and no luck yet. I approached this process through several methods, one with virt-install and creating config file manually. Following is what happens when I try to create a guest, and I have included qemu-dm and last part of xend.log logs below too.

Hello list. This issue seems like it may be related to one described in a post in May: https://www.syslinux.org/archives/2019-May/026424.html. I've only just subscribed, so I was unable to reply directly to that thread. I am having a similar issue when I attempt to PXE boot CentOS 7.6.1810 using lpxelinux.0. The files are fully downloaded from the server and the kernel starts booting but

Gotcha. Thanks all! You guys gave me the answers I needed to know and hear. For the immediate futre I will likely go with multiple pxeboot options which then picks the specific kickstart file. It's easy for me to put a label on the server that says 'web' or 'mail' etc. Then just pick the same from the menu. Eventually I'll delve deeper into custom and automated setups. On

Hello, I''m running XEN 3.0.3 on RHEL5 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5xen. I used to start the vm with "xm create myvm -c". I see the boot during a couple of second, then, it freeze. The console is freezed, not the vm, a couple of second later, I can ssh the vm without any problem. "xm console myvm" also display a freezed state. This is an extrat of the console : # xm

Tom: Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into those tools. Mark: Yes, they are using pxeboot. Right now when they boot up, the pxe config offers two options, 32- and 64bit. Are you suggesting I create multiple entries that one selects based on what the machine is going to be? Is there a way to have this done automatically so I don't have to physically have to do that for each machine,

Then I created a virtual machine using Ubuntu's vmbuilder tool like so: vmbuilder

Has anyone successfully used a kickstart file in tandem with the "virt-install" command? I can get a generic install to begin if I omit the "-x" flag and the kickstart parameters? It seems that virt-install simply ignores my kickstart parameters. virt-install --location=http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/centos/4.5/os/i386/ --noautoconsole --file=/dev/VolGroup00/lv_centos45
