define network in kickstart pre script: msg#00077linux.redhat.release.rhel5
Hi. I've looked around for this, and am continuing to look for an example. At the install prompt when you run 'linux ks=http://website/ks.cfg' and you do not have DHCP available you are prompted for network configuration (or you can provide via options). The IP address at this point is strictly for the purpose of getting the kickstart file (from what I've experienced). Once the kickstart is downloaded the network configuration inside it overrides the local system. My question, since I know you can access the network during the %pre script, is can you setup a script in pre that will take the IP configuration initially provided for the ks.cfg download, and somehow configure the IP configuration for the rest of the process? DHCP is not an option for our environment. At the moment, if I can't figure this part out I was going to setup a perl script for the purpose of parsing the requested url aand handing back a re-written kickstart. thanks greg |
