I have not used Fedora in a long while (since version 5 I think).
I am moving back to it for my new home server but there is something that is driving me completely crazy. Can you no longer do HDD installs from a ISO?
I whipped out my old kickstart files and worked off of them and all seams to be OK but every time it says it is unable to find the install source.
Here are the first two lines of my KS file:
Code:
install
harddrive --partition=sdb1 --dir=/linux_install/fedora/iso
The sha256 checked Fedora-13-x86_64-DVD.iso file resides in:
Code:
/dev/sdb1/linux_install/fedora/iso
Menu option in SYSLINUX:
Code:
LABEL fedora_13_x86_64
MENU LABEL Fedora 13 x86_64
KERNEL linux/fedora/13/x86_64/vmlinuz ks=hd:sdb1/linux_install/fedora/fedora_13.cfg
APPEND initrd=linux/fedora/13/x86_64/initrd.img
TEXT HELP
Fedora 13 x86_64
ENDTEXT
Other information:
Booting off of a USB drive running SYSLINUX (system has no optical drive).
KS file resides on the HDD and seams to find it OK because I got no errors of that sort.
KS file and ISO have the same permissions. 'Everyone' has read access to the folders and files.
