My example is adequate (and used) for remote upgrades (hence the upgradeany from the kernel line) rather than fresh installs. ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs

I don't doubt that it works, but still wonder if the root= is a NOP. ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs

For example, you could add a prerequisites section saying this technique or trick requires the install media available, either on the network or on the local disk. Instructions for setting up the install media on the network can be found in the Installation guide, chapter 2.5 Preparing for a Network Installation http://centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Installation_Guide/s1-steps-network-installs-x86.html Instructions for putting the install media on the local disk can be found in the Installation guide, chapter 2.6 Preparing for a hard drive Installation http://centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Installation_Guide/ch02s06.html It looks like the version 5.2 docs are the most recent on the centos.org site. ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs
