questions on kickstart
I have 2 questions dealing with 2 different kickstart files.
1) my kickstart sections for RAID disk setup and kickstart reports it
cannot find sda. Why is that. sda is there and works.
clearpart --all --initlabel
part raid.01 --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid"
--onpart=sda1 --size=20000
part swap --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="swap"

Kickstart GUI?
Hi,
I was under the impression RHEL had a gui kickstart configurator?
Does it exist in centos? If so what is the command?
Thanks,

kickstart install on SAN with multipath
Using CentOS 5.1, though with a few hours work I could update
to 5.2.. I can install to SAN with a single path no problem
but I'd like to be able to use dm-multipath. From the kickstart
docs it seems this is supported but there is no information
as to what the various options mean

more kickstart - saving %pre decisions for %post
Hey again folks,
How can I save answers to questions in %pre, for use in %post?
I'm assuming (though have not yet tried) that variables won't live that long.
Could I save them off to /tmp in a file, and retrieve them?
e.g.
%pre
echo "VARNAME=$VARNAME" >> /tmp/varfile
%post
grep ^VARNAME= /tmp/varile
Or some such ...

unexpected 'reinitialize disk?' prompt form anaconda during kickstart with zerombr
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Anyone have any thoughts on why anaconda might be prompting me to
reinitialize the disk during the kickstart of a Centos6.4 install on
hyperV when
a) the kickstart file contains "zerombr" as referred to in the
installation guide[1]
b) installation proceeds with no prompt on KVM hypervisors and succeeds?
I have read the release notes[2]/tech

Questions on making a kickstart cfg
So I took the anaconda cfg, commented out the partition/disk pieces and
ran it off my repo server and it almost worked.
Little things like not including things I had done on network setup. No
first boot.... :)
So now I am reading up on building a kickstart cfg

for such. either it is not there or i missed it.

centos 5.0/5.1 nfs kickstart

I'm having a bit of trouble with something and was wondering if anyone
else has encountered this or knows what the problem is.

I have another computer which is the tftpboot server and contains the
centos 5.0 and centos 5.1 install directories
I wish to do the kickstart over nfs and my network is using MTU

disable virtual terminals during kickstart installation
Hi All,
I'm trying to figure out where the inittab is for a pxeboot/kickstart
installation so that I can disable virtual terminals that allow for
interactive input such as CTRL+ALT+F2. I've looked in the /etc
directories for the pxeboot initrd as well as the stage2 and minstg2
files. Am I missing something grossly obvious here?

How to kickstart a guest with Centos 6.6 & Xen 4.4
Hello,
I posted a question over at xenproject.org but it was recommended that I
send out a message here for help.
My post there:
http://www.xenproject.org/help/questions-and-answers/vanilla-pv-centos-guest-via-kickstart-centos-6-6,-xen-4-4.html
The TL;DR is: Everything I've found to kickstart a new vanilla rhel/centos
guest points to specifying a kernel & and initrd- for RHEL/Centos 5.

disk duplication question
I have need to duplicate centos 6 on 133 computers.

self signed ssl cert on C5
Hi,
Does anyone have a pointer to correct documantation for generating and
installing a self signed ssl cert for use on httpd on a C-5 machine?
The docs say to use genkey but AFAIK upstream rm'd crypto-utils from the
distro and as such it is not available. I tried generating the cert on a C-4
machine using genkey and installing on the C-5 machine but I get the following

wbinfo problem
Hi all,
I am trying to setup a samba pdc using the "making users happy" example from
Samba-by-Example. Everything seems to check out fine except that I cannot get
wbinfo -u to work. When I do wbinfo -g I get a list of the groups. If I do
wbinfo -u I get the following:

Quota question.
Hi,
I am trying to get quota working properly on dovecot 1.2.3 with postfix admin,
amavisd-new, mysql, and postfix.
So far I can see the db getting updated when messages are added and deleted
from the mailbox. The problem I am having is that I have imported a bunch of
messages from the old mail server that was running uw-imap and mbox to the
doevcot machine using maildir++. As a result the

kickstart from cd
Howdy,
Was wondering if anyone on the list has successfully created a
kickstart cd. I get the thing burnt, looks good, I can browse all the
files, but when I actually boot from it I can't get it to admit the
ks.cfg exists. I *have* been successful with kickstart over http;
just can't seem to make it happen from the cd. Pointers appreciated,

"selinux --disabled" in kickstart file does NOT disable SELINUX
Which manual?
This could actually be the root of the issue.

issues when add driverdisk to centos5.6 using NFS method
Hi, I am Ken.. I am trying to add dud(driver update disk) to centos5.6
using network method, I can successfully add dud to centos5.6 using
http and ftp method, but fail when using nfs method. However those all
three methods are officially supported in the centos5.6.
As indicated in the centos5.6 website, we can see they not only
support http, ftp, but also nfs.
