Kickstart works well for standalone installations > but not in situations like install fest.. You can have a kickstart which asks the user to manually partition but has a pre-defined set of packages to be installed. As regards why a kickstart method is required to be demonstrated - it allows you to control the installation environment and yet provides the flexibility of demonstrating various installation method. As is the norm, please point the participants at the fest to go through <http://docs.fedoraproject.org/> especially the parts related to <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bugs/F10Common>. The last document comes in handy when they go out and help their friends install Fedora. If you expect a bunch of potential developers etc to be landing up, also take a little time out talk about how to set up a developer box on Fedora, what to select etc. And, if anyone wants to join the Fedora Project, <http://join.fedoraproject.org> -- http://www.gutenberg.net - Fine literature digitally re-published http://www.plos.org - Public Library of Science http://www.creativecommons.org - Flexible copyright for creative work _______________________________________________ Fedora-india mailing list Fedora-india@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-india
