From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; Q312461) Description of problem: "display" for anaconda needs to be documented in all apropriate docs. possibly add man 5 ks.cfg with partial listing of options. It is possible to control a graphical installation remotely by passing the display=ip:0 option on the command line. Likewise a short ks.cfg (a one liner) can give you a jumpstart on having to key in anything locally on the system: #RH72 minimal ks.cfg that will display the installer on your X11 workstation nfs --server 192.168.0.1 --dir /var/ftp/pub/rh72/i386 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open all RH documentation 2. Search documentation for display 3. No hits come back related to the "display" option that can be passed on the command line to allow the graphical anaconda to display on a remote X11 workstation running X-Windows Actual Results: anaconda display documentation not found Expected Results: expected that the anaconda display option for remote graphical installs would be documented Additional info: document it in several of the docs and also create a man page for ks.cfg or kickstart or both
We'll do what we can to begin identifying and documenting additional boot options and kernel options in the Installation Guide. This may take a couple of releases to completely hammer it out, but the work will be started for the next release of Red Hat Linux. Thanks, Sandra
