clumens, This is jsm from #fedora-devel with a list of feature requests as promised. 1) NFS install type represented differently than http/ftp methods. I'm not sure why you can use http://your.server.com/path/to/distro but can't use nfs://your.server.com/path/to/distro in a kickstart file, it seems it would keep things a little more common-- At any rate, in pykickstart I think it would be beneficial if nfs server installs were represented the same way as url installs, right now to define a NFS install, you'd have to set: ksdata.method = {'method':'nfs', 'dir': dir, 'server':distro_server.hostname} but with a http install you only have to set: ksdata.method = {'url':url, 'method':'url'} Seems like one could just as easily parse out the server name and directory from a nfs://your.server.com/path/to/distro url. you might even be able to fold hard drive installations the same way: harddrive://partition/directory
