<DIV>Upon trying to kickstart install fc 17 I get the following
error:<BR>fetching kickstart from /dev/sda1:/k17.ks<BR>warning: unable to
process initqueu<BR>warning: /dev/ram does not exist<BR>Then it drops to a debug
shell.<BR>I boot using DOS 7.10 on sda1 (C:) vfat fs to install as have done
successfully for over 7 years. My image is on a DVD.<BR>My install batch script
uses:<BR>\linld097\linld.com initrd=\17pi.i image=\17pi.k "cl=rw root=/dev/ram
ks=hd:sda1:\k17.ks"<BR>The initrd and kernel are from the install disk.<BR>The
reason I need to use a DOS/linld boot (as opposed to say some other boot sector
method like SYSLINUX or GRUB) is with my method I can (easily) switch to
different config.sys file(s) (in scripts) and have linux boot up (unattended)
three or more times to perform various configuration setups after the install -
the process takes about 2 hours but is fully automated this way. At the very end
I can have a script boot up some other OS such as windows XP.</DIV>
