Re: [Unattended] AD authentication Linux installs....

Ahh, that's good for linux installs (gonna add that to my bag of tricks!),
but that doesn't allow you to pick Windows OR Linux during the Unattended
interactive phase, right?

Thanks!

  We want the nothing but net pxe install on a blank machine.  The grub
  config we drop onthe hard drive would have the ks=nfs:server:/ks.cfg line
  in it.
 
 I'm still not clear on what your assumptions are re: kickstart.  We use a 
 nothing but net pxe install on a blank machine.  We boot the linux 
 kernel and initrd via pxelinux, and pull our ks.cfg off a webserver.

Right, instead you pick which one you want by which pxe boot option you
select.  Thus, you don't even have to go into Unattended if you just
want to kickstart linux.
E.g., at the boot: pxelinux prompt, I type un to pxeboot unattended,
and do a windows install, or ksf3 to pxeboot and kickstart linux.
I see no reason to involve Unattended in the installation of linux.
It's just as easy (easier, in my opinion) to simply boot kickstart
directly from the pxe prompt.
