Hi,
We have loaded our initial REHL 5.2 image via FTP without problems. We are now trying to do our initial KICKSTART. We are executing the PARMFILE with the following statements: root=/dev/ram0 ro ip=off ramdisk_size=40000 CMSDASD=191 CMSCONFFILE=RH52.CONF ks=ftp://lftp:pa55w...@10.15.0.107/SPACE/RHEL52/KICKSTART RUNKS=1 cmdline My CONF file looks like this: /* Configuration Information For Autoinstall RH46 */ /* Note: Verify HOSTNAME, IPADDR and DASD fields. */ /* */ HOSTNAME="KICK52.CMS.HHS.GOV" DASD="700,800,801" NETTYPE="qeth" SUBCHANNELS="0.0.8300,0.0.8301,0.0.8302" PORTNAME=" " IPADDR="10.15.49.25" NETWORK="10.15.0.0" NETMASK="255.255.0.0" BROADCAST="10.15.0.255" GATEWAY="10.15.0.254" LAYER2="0" MACADDR=" " SEARCHDNS="cms.hhs.gov" DNS="10.15.0.117" MTU="1500" The problem we are having is that when I try executing the PARMFILE to connect to FTP it looks like it is appending HTTP://FTP <http://ftp/> . So it is never getting to the FTP site that has the KICKSTART. Here is what I see when I execute the Rh52 exec: 16:52:04 INFO : file location: ftp://lftp:pa55w...@10.15.0.107/SPACE/RHEL52/K ICKSTART 16:52:04 INFO : transferring ftp://lftp:pa55w...@10.15.0.107//SPACE/RHEL52/KI CKSTART to a fd 16:52:09 ERROR : cannot determine address family of lftp 16:52:09 ERROR : failed to retrieve http://lftp:pa55w...@10.15.0.107///SPACE/HEL52/KICKSTART Any help would be welcomed.
