If you want interactive monitoring of the install you could do: koan --virt --system=foo --vm-poll & # background this operation sleep 3 && virsh console sysname (For KVM to get a console you'll need to add console=ttyS0 to the kernel options in Cobbler (or on the koan command line), Xen will automatically provide one ... note I'm using virsh to abstract out the xm/qemu command differences so these steps work the same for xen and qemu/KVM -- man "virsh" for more details). > -s- > > _______________________________________________ > cobbler mailing list > [email protected] > https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler > _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
