Hi:
I have successfully seting up the pxe deployment. I tried to create an unattended setup. I have created the ks.cfg

However, The setup is "semi" unattended. When I got to the part where the computer partition. It asked me to prompt the partition.

I want my installation to be fully unattended.
I want the whole disk to be formatted it, and use the centos default for setting up new copy of os
Can anybody help me edit my ks.cfg

partition part
full ks.cfg file

In your kickstart config youi have not defined any partitions. Have a look on redhat site for the RHEL manuals, its in there. I cant remember exactly of the top of my head exactly what to put there. I have a ks.cfg and it sets up LVM etc no problem. Not a my linux box now though.

can you post your part of the ks.cfg ???
So I can take a look

Yeah I will do. Although for some strange reason I cannot access linuxquestions.org from home anymore??
Firefox times out 'waiting for finuxquestions.org'
Strange indeed, all other sites are accessible?? Anyway I'll tranfer it to usb stick and post it tomorrow. Sorry for the delay!!!

I added this part in. But not sure am I correct or not. I want to use the whole hard disk.
