My ks file
Unable to reproduce here.
Tested with a FC3T3 tree and above kickstart using uk initially then changing
to us for keyboard directive. The kickstart boots up into graphical and goes
straight to reading package information, before formatting and installing. No
additional input required.
Can you confirm with above config just changing the url/nfs line as appropriate
for your setup?
Yes, I can confirm the bug. I also had to change the disk partitioning from hda to sda, but using your attached kickstart file I was again prompted for a keyboard type. This was the only prompt for user input. Some more information about my configuration: this is a Dell 2650 machine, pxebooting the installation, using a serial console for the installation. There is no keyboard actually attached to this system. Can you retest with a keyboard attached? Tested again, with full keyboard/mouse/video setup attached. No change in behavior -- I'm still prompted for a keyboard type. I then tried it without the serial console (no console= argument on the kernel command line), and it proceeded to do a complete installation, without prompting for the keyboard type. Just for comparison, running the same sort of setup (serial console, no keyboard, pxebooted kernel) works fine on RHEL 4b1 (Nahant). Add 'serial' to your command line options and it'll work. It's fixed post-FC3 |
