My present Ansible playbook can spin-up a VM in the interactive Ubuntu
installation (e.g. waiting for you to select the language on the first
screen), but I've not been able to get it instead to go to the
PXEBOOT/KICKSTART server on the same network. The P/K works fine when F12
is pressed and it goes off and builds a complete server of any kind on my
stack but I want to be able to initiate that with a transformation of the
Ansible playbook below and have no idea how to do it after a pretty
thorough review of documents on the Internet. If anyone knows how this can
be accomplished and could comment, I'd sure appreciate it.
