Prasanna, Put the ks.cfg file in the root of the CD with folder structure thus: \---cd_root .discinfo, training-ks-ata.cfg, training-ks-scsi.cfg | |---isolinux boot.msg, isolinux.bin, isolinux.cfg | \---RedHat | |---base | \---RPMS Edit the isolinux.cfg file: vi /cd_root/isolinux/isolinux.cfg default hdd prompt 1 timeout 600 display boot.msg F1 boot.msg F2 options.msg F3 general.msg F4 param.msg F5 rescue.msg F7 snake.msg label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img label text kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img text label expert kernel vmlinuz append expert initrd=initrd.img label ks kernel vmlinuz append ks initrd=initrd.img label lowres kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img lowres label training-ata kernel vmlinuz append ks=cdrom:/training-ks-ata.cfg initrd=initrd.img label training-scsi kernel vmlinuz append ks=cdrom:/training-ks-scsi.cfg initrd=initrd.img label hdd localboot 0x80 Run this command to make the iso: mkisofs -o ~/isos/training.iso -r -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -R -J -v -T /cd_root/ Hope this helps.

This way, I am not making use of the dosutils directory. However, during the boot process, it fails to find the kickstart file on my CD and the installation halts. On my other tty, I see the message "Searching for file on path /tmp/mnt//ks.cfg". Has anyone encountered the above issue before? Any help/pointers would be greatly appreciated. I am trying create the CD using RHEL 4.0 (base version with no updates) for x86_64. I am making use of the below mentioned URL to create my customized minimal Linux CD. http://fedoranews.org/blog/?p=650 Please find the extract of my isolinux.cfg file in the isolinux directory below: -bash-2.05b$ cat isolinux.cfg default myks prompt 1 timeout 0 display snake.msg label myks kernel vmlinuz append ks=cdrom initrd=initrd.img text ramdisk_size=8192 thanks Prasanna _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list -- Click on the link below to report this email as spam https://www.mailcontrol.com/sr/9AKDG7w5T29b4HioalM3+5S2bkvKt0nNtx9Sgw96hI32VykUMwpLcC3DpqLhQRIA1qVHNYC+tzkrcl7KHtjvyuPpkaIwrY3c8QLsTtNgk+ZQwnSYlMwDDYWuq5VunjL0awlFgUYs33mfCUkP+tSvh!B!3hWSXYFPfRis3bIbPGG9zYtTVZAGyiG8p!XcxADI5A6kWRyxnr!vvWtpQJjvFlG7XMSEvIfj </tt>
