From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040917 Firefox/0.9.3 Description of problem: I'm experiencing the same problem described here https://listman.redhat.com/archives/kickstart-list/2004-November/msg00089.html whereas I have 'keyboard us' in my kickstart config yet am prompted to pick a keyboard type during the install. This only happens on serial installs, text and graphical both go hands free. As you might imagine this is a real annoyance when loading multiple headless nodes. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-10.1.0.2-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. kickstart with the following options append ksdevice=eth0 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,19200 load_ramdisk=1 initrd=initrd-core3.img network ks=nfs:172.16.0.18:/usr/kickstart/kickstart-server/ksvancouver.cfg 2. watch for the 'What type of keyboard do you have?' question 3. become annoyed :) Actual Results: Prompts for keyboard, upon selecting one it continues the install hands free as it should. Expected Results: barring any configuration errors, pxe boot to post install should be hands free. Additional info:
Does it work if you add 'serial' to your kernel boot params?
Yeah that works and I see the param is list here http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install-guide/ch-bootopts.html I've just never needed it before. Sorry bout that, and thanks for your time.
Okay, will be fixed in FC4 then.
