We use a "nothing but net pxe install on a blank machine". We boot the linux kernel and initrd via pxelinux, and pull our ks.cfg off a webserver. Here's a sample pxelinux.cfg/default stanza: label ksf3 kernel vmlinuz-fedora-3.ks append ks=http://10.0.0.2/kickstarting/fedora-3/ks-desktop.cfg initrd=ksinit-fedora-3.rd There's no need to boot off the HD and/or use grub just to kick off the install.

[Unattended] AD authentication & Linux installs....
Hi all! I'm working on adding AD authentication to unattended. You would need to sucessfully authenticate as a member of a list of users in order to use unattended. The code is written in PHP. I'm looking at adding a system call from within dosbin/install.pl. I'm looking for suggestions on where in the code to add the login check. Also, I'd like the option of installing Linux (fedora 3 based) by way of unattended. It looks like I could add that option in /etc/master. Just copy the install initrd and isolinux directories, add a grub call, and reboot. Does anyone see anything wrong with that plan?

I'm trying to install the gui in a debian testing system. Apparently, the php-pear package already comes with the Auth and DB modules. I downloaded the Sigma module but i can't find any info on how to install the module.. Could you lend me a hand? Also ran into an include problem... after running install.php i got Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: auth in /home/www/unattended/include/API.php on line 130 any ideas on how can i fix this?

RE: [Unattended] Using csv
Just rename the sample-config.pl to config.pl! -- Moritz From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Johan Stevens Sent: Wednesday, February 23, 2005 5:09 PM To: unattended-info@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Unattended] Using csv Hi all, I have unattended up and running, with my unattend.txt in the site-folder. The only thing I still have to do is enter the computername manually. I'd like to use the unattend.csv to lookup the computername based on the macaddress. Can anyone tell me what steps I have to take after filling the .csv file with macaddresses and corresponding computernames, 'cause I can't seem to get it to work... I'd still like to keep the other info in my unattend.txt and only use the .csv for the computername. Thanks in advance.

Re: [Unattended] File copy fails
Hi, I had this error on an old desktop machine I was using to test unattended, before I started using it on potential production machines. The atapi/sys error persisted stayed no matter what I tried with unattended so, eventually, I gave up trying to install onto that machine, tried another one and *bam* it all worked perfectly! The only thing I can guess at causing the failed copy error would either be a slightly iffy hard drive. If anyone does discover a fix for this issue, I'd still like to hear it, after all, I have an old desktop machine sitting there doing nothing :) Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance Heather.

Thanks Heather Tue, 22 Feb 2005 14:32:51 -0800 Tony, I just started using Unattended last week. I was able to get my first workstation up and running with no problems. Then I tried my second workstation and bam I got the atapi.sys unable to copy error as well. I saw you posted on the mailing list you had that issue. Were you able to get it resolved?
