Hello, a minor update to the kickstart install. This seems to work well with the latest snapshot except for the grub issue (see below), please check for regressions in the pre- and postinstall interactions since I've needed to change the TTY handling.
Documentation note: if you want to install from cdrom without being prompted, add "method=cdrom:" (with the ':') to the installer command line. The current documentation doesn't include the trailing colon that anaconda insists on. IMPORTANT: this REQUIRES post-beta-snapshot updated packages, the ks script will instruct you in the postinstall section about the details. I used the following for i386: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/selinux-policy-2.4.6-9.fc7.noarch.rpm http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/selinux-policy-devel-2.4.6-9.fc7.noarch.rpm http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/selinux-policy-mls-2.4.6-9.fc7.noarch.rpm http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/selinux-policy-strict-2.4.6-9.fc7.noarch.rpm http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/selinux-policy-targeted-2.4.6-9.fc7.noarch.rpm http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/lspp/kernel-2.6.18-1.2840.2.1.el5.lspp.57.i686.rpm http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/lspp/kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2840.2.1.el5.lspp.57.i686.rpm http://people.redhat.com/dwalsh/SELinux/RHEL5/i386/pam-0.99.6.2-3.6.el5.i386.rpm http://people.redhat.com/dwalsh/SELinux/RHEL5/i386/pam-devel-0.99.6.2-3.6.el5.i386.rpm Known issues: - may generate a broken grub config, I suggest checking it using a shell escape in the postinstall (I needed to change root from (hd1,0) to (hd0,0) in vmware, /boot/grub/device.map maps hd0 to /dev/hdc instead of /dev/sda). Workaround: umount /boot mount /boot grub-install --recheck hd0 Changes: Skip the prompts asking for the install key Support "method=cdrom:" cmdline arg; add IP addr sanity check Redo tty handling to work around shell and zSeries issues RPM download: http://klaus.vh.swiftco.net/lspp/SRPMS/ http://klaus.vh.swiftco.net/lspp/RPMS/noarch/ Git repository: http://klaus.vh.swiftco.net/lspp/git/ -Klaus -- redhat-lspp mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-lspp
