The Ubuntu code is supposed to work, though is slightly different from the Debian bits. I think we need to test both. Good catch on the parameters. Previously folks doing Ubuntu were leaving it --breed=redhat and using kickstart=, and supplying a "kickseed" file. Have not personally tried that though I was told it worked. If they take slightly different syntax, we ideally would ship one in /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts as we do with the sample preseed. Another longer term thing would be adding snippets that available for Red Hat based distros only so things work the same. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
