I want to make a very minor change to the netinstall ISO image, namely adding a few parameters to the boot line to automatically kick off a kickstart installation. Here is my approach: mount -o loop CentOS-6.2-i386-netinstall.iso /mnt cp -pr /mnt /tmp cd /tmp/mnt vi isolinux/isolinux.cfg # Add some stuff to the default append line and reduce timeout mkisofs -o

Hi all, i'm trying out a netinstall test installation. When asked to where I do want to install I got a bunch of choices.

Hello, I was looking to create a Xen DomU with a .iso image saved in the hard disk. I ran into some trouble with http based install, hence looking at this option. This is what i have currently. Just wanted to know if I am on the right track here, and hoping to get some tips if somebody has similar experience. I compiled Xen 4.1.5 from source on a Fedora 17 Dom0, and I want to create DomU

What I described was plenty enough for anyone who's been through the netinstall configuration before. There's no point in explanation a simple gui for those who don't what I'm talking

Hi. The other day I burnt a copy of a CentOS 6.4 64 bit netinstall disc, verified the disc which passed & about a third of the way through the install it informed me that there was no CD in the drive & refused to carry on.

How can I get it to bypass the wlan0 idea and go straight to eth0...? Thanks, -- -- Jeff -- <http://www.wellnow.com> "There's nothing

Hi list, I downloaded the netinstall iso, burned it to disk, and tried to install on my old Dell PowerEdge 2900 (Intel Xeon / 8Gb ram). Machine is connected to a KVM.
