🥳🥳 It's merged John! 🥳🥳 |
To help support different operating systems. Add the ability to specify a different keyword for the kickstart file. So instead of 'ks' being the only specifier for a kickstart file be able to specify a different keyword. Propose to use 'ks_keyword' Add a new 'ks_meta' variable 'ks_keyword'. This can be used to change the default kickstart keyword from 'ks' to something else. For example to support Debian can use: ks_meta="ks_keyword=preseed/url' Then normal template processing will occur but instead of the kernel command line argument being like: ks=http://example.com/kickstart/23 It would be: preseed/url=http://example/com/kickstart/23
