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

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.

Thank You,
