Hi again,

Im still fighting to get it all working! Puh!

Conclusions so far (could be useful for you developers to know about) from a
cobbler beginner.

* Wow, so difficult to get the latest version up and running on RHEL6.
  No RPMs with 2.1.0, still stuck with the 2.0.10 version.
   - Anyone know how to get 2.1.0 in on RHEL without dependency    problems?


* cobbler get-loaders failed. Seems to exist a bug id when trying to
  pull the files from the web behind a proxy. I downloaded the files with
wget. A time killer trying to get cobbler get-loaders

* cobbler add distro for RHEL6 fails,
   ....
   found content (breed=redhat) at /v ...
   ...
   Exceptions occured:
  ...
   Also a known issue. Some thread indicated a missing
   https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/ticket/482


So, I really appreciate the time you developers have put into Cobbler.
As a new user that need to get Cobbler up and running on RHEL6, serving
RHEL6 and other distros/versions, this trip has been time consuming and has
really lead to frustration.

Any clues/hints to get things to work and get a solid/stable setup is VERY
appreciated, I know Cobbler is the right choice for our business.

Regards,
Daniel
