Bryan, Thanks for the response!
Alas this isn't a netboot problem - although at first glance I thought you were correct. Unfortunately, I'm watching my VM reinstall itself again :( It's almost like I "koan --replace-self" but that's not what I told it to do. In fact, this is what I executed: koan --server=cobbler --system=centos-workstation --virt I literally see the VM install itself, bootloader installs then the VM shutdown and is started up again and its as if I initiated the original " koan --server=cobbler --system=centos-workstation --virt" Flossy ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Bryan Hughes" <[email protected]> > To: "cobbler mailing list" <[email protected]> > Sent: Tuesday, November 26, 2013 11:24:53 AM > Subject: Re: [cobbler] Using KOAN to install a VM under CentOS 6.4 using > CentOS Xen...it installs over and over again > it is because of the "Netboot Enabled" flag in cobbler. > After the node begins its kickstart either change netboot enabled to false > (unchecked) in GUI or run the following command: > cobbler system edit --name=<hostname> --netboot-enabled=0 > That should fix it for you. > Make sure you do it AFTER it begins PXE (so during DHCP stage is fine, right > after it gets its IP). > On 11/26/13, 9:30 AM, Scot Floess wrote: > > All, > > > I'm somewhat confounded by what I'm seeing when using KOAN.
