Description bruno 2001-03-21 21:13:37 UTC 
currently, for network-enabled kickstarts, anaconda can only get the
kickstart file
with NFS.

we are using "HTTP" as our installation method and we'd like to do away
with NFS.

can you add a mechanism to transfer the kickstart file to the installing
host with HTTP?

for example, something like:

	ks=http://yourhost.com/ks.cfg

This functionality exists in Roswell, the beta for the next release of Red Hat Linux
