But I get failures about errors in kickstart files when Anaconda launches. I want to get a shell to troubleshoot the problem. How do I do that? Right now I have a screen that says: The system will be rebooted when you press Ctrl+C or Ctrl+Alt+Del. The message also says that the Anaconda version is 13.21.149. I’m trying to install RHEL 6.2 Server.
