I have been banging my head against a wall for about a week now. I am attempting to install FC6 via PXE and kickstart to a shuttle machine. It has 1G RAM, 300G SATA x2, 2600+ Atholon, and mother board is stock on the bare-bones Shuttle-X line.
I have set the install to pull from an URL, a NFS, and a local source. None of these options have been fruitful. For giggles, I did a KS with my FC3 repo via URL, and it worked with no problem. I blew away my local repo of FC6, and re-rsync'd from kernel.org. Pulled down a 'clean' copy of the FC6 DVD and checked the check sum. Still no love.
My PXE config file is as follows:
Quote:
default local
timeout 30
prompt 1
label local
localboot 0
label ks
kernel vmlinuz-fc6
append text nofb acpi=off apm=off initrd=initrd-fc6.img ks=nfs:install:/var/install/kickstart/fs-ks.cfg ksdevice=eth0
|
And the Key part of the KS file:
Quote:

text

#nfs --server=install --dir=/var/install/fedora/6/i386/os

Any help will be most welcomed!
Thanks,

On a side note, why does anaconda not install the bootloader in the mbr when you specify "bootloader --location=mbr"?
