You can force it by setting --os-version=generic26, or you can hand-edit codes.py to add fedora12 to the list (and then use that for --os-version). I wouldn't recommend the later, though I'm not sure why fedora12 was removed - it'd only be about 4 years old and we still have rhel3 in there. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
