I just built a spacewalk server and I'm trying to use it to kickstart the build of another box. It mostly works fine, with 2 exceptions:
1. When the CentOS install starts, it says that it can't find the stage2.img file. It is trying to find it by the DNS name of my spacewalk server. It will let me edit where it's looking, and if I replace the server name with the server IP address, then it finds the file and the OS install completes. My spacewalk server provides DHCP, and valid DNS servers are included in the DHCP scope. After the install is complete and the newly built server boots up, it gets DHCP from the spacewalk server, /etc/resolv.conf is properly populated and I can successfully do an nslookup of the spacewalk server on it. So as far as I can tell, DHCP and DNS are working. Any suggestions? 2. When the kickstart completes, the newly built server is not registered in spacewalk. Shouldn't it be? Or do they always need to be registered manually? Or is it best to have it be registered through a post install script? I do have an activation key associated with the kickstart profile, and I've set up the tools child channel as outlined here: https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToKickstartCobbler Any guidance is appreciated.
