Hmmm, I wonder if this was changed/broken in build 94? I upgraded the system
to build 94, and it seems that autocf requires dns (instead of http) now.
Running virt-install with an autocf=http... line, It fails, with:
File
"/export/builds/xvm_94///proto/install/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/virtinst/Guest.py",
line 794, in set_autocf
ValueError: http://135.1.29.1/nfs/xen_guest_sl52_x86_64_ks/kickstart/ks.cfg.1

Do you mean NFS?
My apologies, I've mis-remembered how this works. --autocf is
Solaris-specific (JumpStart). For Linux, you need to specify it with -x
like the examples here:
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2007-June/082377.html
(it would be nice if --autocf understood both Linux and Solaris, but
it's not a priority for us right now.)

Thank you John, that was my problem (basically, use -x (or
--extra-args), but I didn't know I needed the whole "ks=<path>" line).
So, in case someone else needs this, here is a copy of my virt-install
command:
virt-install -n test-dev2 --ram=1024 --vcpus=2 \
--os-type=linux --os-variant=rhel5 \
--file=/dev/zvol/dsk/zfs_pool/xen/lss-kickstart2/root \
--file=/dev/zvol/dsk/zfs_pool/xen/lss-kickstart2/swap \
--accelerate --paravirt --nographics \
--location=http://136.1.29.1/nfs/scientific/52/x86_64/ \
--extra-args="ks=http://136.1.29.1/nfs/kickstart/ks.cfg.4"; -d
regards,
Paul
