Description Brent Fox 2002-11-13 16:46:09 UTC
I'm looking at:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/custom-guide/s1-kickstart2-options.html

at the section that covers the "install" option

I may be wrong here, but I think that there are no options to the install
command.  From looking at the docs, it appears that the user is expected to say
something like:

install nfs --server=porkchop.redhat.com --dir=/mnt/redhat/test

When actually "install" and "nfs" are expected to be on a line by themselves.

For example:

install
nfs --server=porkchop.redhat.com --dir=/mnt/redhat/test

Comment 1 Tammy Fox 2002-11-13 19:36:05 UTC
The install command is supposed to be on a separate line. The nfs, cdrom, etc.
options are underneath the install because one is required if you specify
install. The example shown do not show the install command on the same line
with nfs, etc. However, it could be clearer that this is the case. I have
added a sentence that says they must be on separate lines. It will appear in the
next version. Thanks for the report.
