From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.18 i686)


A "Exception Occured" windows appear, the last line being "Key error :
basesystem".


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to kickstart a Pentium 4 over nfs.
2.
3.

My question is: is it possible to kickstart a pentium 4 with the kernel
2.2.14 base bootnet.img installation disk ? Is there a kernel 2.2.18 or
2.2.19 base bootnet.img available which might resolved the issue?

I'm not certain, but I don't think 6.2 supported Pentium 4.  And no, you should
not use a boot disk with a different kernel version.  I would recommend trying
Red Hat Linux 7.1, which supports Pentium 4s.  The 2.4.x series of kernels work
quite nicely with them.
