No. You need to do specify the kopts variables on either the cobbler end or the koan end.

    * cobbler ... --kopts='<kernel args>'

or

    * koan ... --kopts='<kernel args>'

FYI,


yes - i wrote ksmeta but meant kopts - my bad there, now i have more of a scripting question

To add a system i have a script that i pass some args to and it looks like this

cobbler system add --name=$1 --mac=$2 --hostname=$1 --ip=$3 --subnet=$4 --gateway=$5 --ksmeta="nameserver=10.xxx.xxx.117" --profile=$6

works fine and by 'scraping' that info from machines currently running i can automate the process of adding systems.

A typical use of this script i call 'buildbox' would be

buildbox xxxxxx 00:13:72:69:95:7E 10.xxx.xxx.19 255.255.254.0 10.xxx.xxx.253 RHEL4-u5-i386-prd

This works like a charm and adds machines - however when i add the following...

cobbler system add --name=$1 --mac=$2 --hostname=$1 --ip=$3 --subnet=$4 --gateway=$5 --ksmeta="nameserver=10.168.86.117" --profile=$6 --kopts='ip=$3 netmask=$4 gateway=$5 dns=10.xxx.xxx.117'

the 'ksopts' bits just end up as $3, $4 etc and not their actual value -

Can anyone offer me a hint here

thanks
