Cobbler Version 2.0.9
Cobbler Server Fedora 13
I have setup a Cobber Server with a local F13 repository. I can
successfully use PXE to install F13 using a kickstart file. According
to the documentation, it appears as though Cobbler will configure the
yum repositories on the newly installed system to match the repo's I
have locally. I have not been able to get the yum repos configured to
my local repos via the PXE/kickstart procedure. The standard F13 repos
are defined on the newly built system.
My /etc/cobbler/settings file has the option yum_post_install_mirror: 1
configured.
The kickstart file has the $yum_repo_stanza entry as well.
Thanks in advance for your help!!!
