RHEL 5 Kickstart

pablo1999 · 02-01-2010, 05:30 PM

I'm using RHEL 5.4 and trying to use the system-config-kickstart to generate a ks.cfg file with all the settings already appeneded. After running the "system-config-kickstart --generate ks.cfg" command, the file gets created but it's missing the firewall configuration, partition information and so on.

How can these settings also be generated with the system-config-kickstart?

Any inputs?

I'm not sure how many options you get when running system-config-kickstart, but if you install a system as a template, you'll find the file /root/anaconda-ks.cfg with the partition layout and package list that you chose.

If you read the kickstart docs you can add the relevant commands to your ks.cfg manually - http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red...ickstart2.html
