Kickstart problem on FC4


hi, I'm currently using FC4.
And I've configured kikstart in my PC. But it does not work on the other PC.

It gives like the following error,

"The following directory does not seem to have a Fedora Core installation tree."

can anyone tell me whats happening?
I've just save the ks.cfg file into the nfs directory.
Is there anything else to do?

check the virtual consoles for any hings (ALT+F2/F3/F4).

your installation source might not be valid. check the manual for setting up
online installation sources.

in my RHEL4 kickstart file:

nfs --server=10.a.b.c --dir=/export/source/redhat/u4/

/export/source/redhat/u4/ has all the binary ISOs.

also, check the logs for your installation server.

Please check for following :
1. Copy all ISO images [ Not CD contents ] to NFS share.
2. Try to access NFS share from some other client system whether it is accessible or not.

If you still face problem, please provide your /etc/exports & kickstart file for troubleshooting.
