Was browsing the cobbler codes to become more familiar with the software.
Looking at cobbler/codes.py, I spotted the following:
43 VALID_OS_VERSIONS = {
44 "redhat" : [ "rhel3", "rhel4", "rhel5", "rhel6", "fedora14",
"fedora15", "fedora16", "fedora17", "fedora18", "rawhide", "generic24",
"generic26", "virtio26", "other" ],
45 "suse" : [ "sles9", "sles10", "sles11", "opensuse11.2",
"opensuse11.3", "opensuse11.4", "opensuse12.1", "opensuse12.2", "generic24",
"generic26", "virtio26", "other" ],
46 "debian" : [ "lenny", "squeeze", "stable", "testing", "unstable",
"generic24", "generic26", "other" ],
47 "ubuntu" : [ "hardy", "lucid", "maverick", "natty", "precise",
"quantal" ],
48 "generic" : [ "generic24", "generic26", "other" ],
49 "windows" : [ "winxp", "win2k", "win2k3", "vista", "other" ],
50 "unix" : [ "solaris9", "solaris10", "other" ],
51 "vmware" : [ "esx4", "esxi4", "esxi5" ],
52 "freebsd" : [ "7.3", "7.4", "8.1", "8.2", "8.3", "9.0", "9.1" ],
53 "other" : [ "msdos", "netware4", "netware5", "netware6",
"generic", "other" ]
54 }
That got me curious. M$ Windows! Among the listed, how well cobbler supports
them? I have done some digging into both the current and old documentation but
couldn't find much instructions. Are these elements in the dictionary and
lists TODOs or real? ;-)
Seriously, is there a place where I can find the status of support of each
listed OS in the above dictionary? My own limited experience can only confirm
that RHEL 6, Fedora 17, precise and quantal do work, with the last two
demanding more work to use the current version 2.4.0, among other minor
annoyances that I hope to be able to work on soon (under water due to work load
again :-(
I would appreciate a pointer. So far, the best I could find is from the
prolific Jörgen Maas's posts, e.g.
