Locane, Awesome - thanks for the help! I will try this later today...
Quick question, does that perform an actual unattended install or does a GUI start up as if I wanted to boot via CD? The reason I'm asking is I'm trying to use KOAN to kick start this unattended (as in not needing to manually intervene). Anyway - will try this here shortly... I did have "root=/boot.iso" (well used the iso name I imported) but as mentioned previously, I'm trying to use a kickstart (ultimately I'll be putting in some additional templating stuff which is why I am trying to do this in the fashion I described)... Appreciate it!
