Tim, I use the nfs string you mention below in my kickstart template and have added these variables to my /etc/cobbler/settings so that cobbler picks them up when it generates the ks.cfg
The vars are: Nfs_server: 'ip address' Nfs_distro_root: 'my distro path' -joe Joseph Boyer Jr Enterprise Technology Services Liquidnet Holdings, Inc.

It seems that RH (and thus cobbler) uses UDP for NFS kickstarts. How are folks NFS kickstarting with their Filers using NFS over TCP? The official RH line is to use a boot command line option for RH4. Further research shows: It look like adding --opts=tcp to the nfs line in the ks file would works. Since the ks file is generated on-the-fly how do I get something that looks like this # INSTALLATION TYPE nfs --server $nfs_server --dir $nfs_distro_root/$distro --opts=tcp Timothy French <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Office of Information Technology, University of Utah Key fingerprint = 838C F04D AAC8 6D9C 7ED7 2629 925E BF3E 1FD1 826C This is a bit kludgy, so you might want to rethink why you want to do it. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
