Netboot enabled is triggered by the $kickstart_done signal in %post. If it printed false likely you did not provide a valid profile/system name as defined in cobbler. It doesn't really apply to the cloner image as that image will not have a cobbler system record associated with it that it needs to trip off. The cloner image, therefore, should not reboot, as if it did, it would reclone. > -Andrew > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > cobbler mailing list > [email protected] > https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler > _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
