Hi all, I still use the following kickstart partition scheme for C7 installations (via virt-install): Briefly, fixed size for /root and /boot, and the rest is filled up for /srv. The same kickstart (despite that c7 uses vda, f29 uses sda) doesn't work with Fedora29 (EL8). I get a "device is too small for new format" error. Any hints? part /RESCUE --fstype="ext4"

Hello, I am working on a kickstart automated Centos 7 GUI vm deployment. Defining gnome desktop in kickstart works. @gnome-desktop - A GNOME desktop However Centos and anything from the epel-release such as xrdp does not work. I have tried it on different ways. repo --name=epel-release %packages #epel-release # DOES NOT WORK @ Core #@core @ Base

I am testing a CentOS 7.6 kickstart installation. After kickstart was initiated, the installation stops at some point where a sort of table is printed under "Installation", and the item that fails is 4 - Software selection, Error checking software selection. I have checked /tmp/packaging.log and /tmp/anaconda.log, but cannot find any errors here that would prevent installation. Poor

Is the kickstart repo directive broken under CentOS 7? Every attempt with a repo directive in the kickstart file fails during the software selection step. Removing the repo directives and the packages from those repos under %packages makes it work. On console 2, I have verified that the (NFS) repos specified in the kickstart file are mounted and that the repo metadata has been copied over to

Folks Is there a way to reboot and have a script run without intervention. During initial setup, I'd like to avoid the manual actions of logging on as root and executing a command, but instead have that command run without intervention. The output of the command would still show up on the terminal that initiated the reboot. Security is not a concern here. And I don't want to

Using centos 5.2, I want to use a kickstart file to select packages in order to have an unattended install onto a bare-metal server. Is there any way of finding out which packages I need to compile, build and run asterisk ? I generally want to build all modules in asterisk and the wct4xxp zaptel module I want to be able to not select any groups in the kickstart file, but only select

This should be easy to answer (I hope).? We routinely kickstart boxes to use for managing our customers RADIUS/DHCP configurations (along with other things).? We've had a C7 kickstart in place since I built one in May and are finally starting to roll it out for new installations.? But, I'm curious as to what ksdevice= actually does. With the C6 we routinely used ksdevice=eth0 since we

Hi, I'm kickstarting a vm in ESXi 5.1. ks.cfg is on floppy, install media is ISO file. This works great as long as I don't add an additional repo, in our case it is vmware tools on one of our webservers. If I add the repo line, anaconda asks then for the used network card and indeed, switching to console the interfaces are still unconfigured. Chosing eth0 in gui continues the

I can do a yum update in my post kickstart (which is what I am doing now actually). However, I want to save network time at installations. If I copy down the files from centos/5.3/updates/x86_64/RPMS and place them in a directory local on my network, can I just "rpm -U /mnt/directory/updates/x86_64/RPMS*" in my post section? Assuming I have nfs mounted the directory of course...

Hi, OT for this list, but maybe I can get some pointers - how hard is it to get some packages updated in EPEL? The project web site sends you from link to link, and the ML web interface is horrible. No interest here to become a package maintainer or regular contributor. I have taken it upon myself to rebuild MATE from Fedora 29, seeing that the current EPEL-7 packages are four revisions behind.

Is it at all possible to do a graphical netinstall ? I am using centos 5.2, and i have been doing net installs (pxe) for a while in console mode... -- Test <test at remedial-teacher.nl>

Hello All, I'm trying to get kickstart to work through pxe. So far I've set up dhcp server, tftp and so on. But it seems at some point I always get stuck because the iso file is write-protected. I've tried remounting it rw, and I 've dd the iso first, I then get EM not a block device. Any help would be appreciated. Greetings, J.
