I'm actually in the progress of writing a blog post about this journey :) I can't tell what iso you are using for this, so I'm just going to give you my summary of how i got it working. Be sure to change the arch as necessary for your setup: 1: Import Fedora 21 Server netinstall as your distro (same commands you ran above but with one of these isos: http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/21/Server/x86_64/iso/ ) 2: Sync the Fedora/21/Everything repository (use --mirror-locally=False if you can get away with it! :) cobbler repo add --name=fedora21-everything-64 --breed=yum --arch=x86_64 --mirror= http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/21/Everything/x86_64/os/ 3: Now they have to be glued together. You need to copy the .treeinfo and images directories from the distro into everything repo. cp -pr /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/fedora21/{.treeinfo,LiveOS,images} /var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/fedora21-everything-64/ 4: Then you need to edit the distro's tree path cobbler distro edit --name=fedora21-x86_64 --ksmeta=tree=http:// @@http_server@@/cblr/repo_mirror/fedora21-everything-x86_64 I came up with this at like 1am last night, so i might not have caught everything here. Plus there is probably a was better method. Maybe manually syncing the everything repo, adding the distro bits, and then using that to do the distro import? Would definitely leave cobbler setup cleaner, imho. -greg
