Using Kickstart --Prompt for Install Location?


I was wondering if there were a way to have a Kickstart install prompt for the Mount Point (Install Location) of Fedora Core 3? I ask because I am having difficulty Ghosting my machines and the quickest way to get around this issue is with a Kickstart Install.

However, there is a catch. I was not the one who setup the partition structure of these machines, so the Linux Partition has ended up all over the place. I would rather not go around to all 100 or so machines and change the partition information if I do not have to.

Thanks in advance.

PS- These machines also have Windows already installed and I need to dual-boot the systems. So "clearpart --all" and re-create the structure won't work here.

Figured it out....

In your KickStart file, just comment out the lines that have to do with partition information with the ('#') character.
