When you run livecd-iso-to-pxeboot it should spit out a temporary directory called 'pxelinux.cfg'. Do not copy this into cobbler, instead just cat the file... it should have the root parameter in there with exactly what you should use. Then you can delete that directory. --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
