hello,
I am trying to implement a customized kickstart system, that pulls
variables for almost everything..
it should take the original http://IPOFSERVER/ks/ks.cfg and parse out
the IP (in %pre) to make the IP a KSSERVER variable.
anyway, my problem is this.. I am trying to make the KSSERVER and OS
directory (rh9,fc2, etc) dynamic for the
url --url http://IPOFSERVER/OS
The way i am trying to do this, is to dynamically create the data in
pre, and create a /tmp/url.cfg. In the main body of the ks.cfg, a:
%include /tmp/url.cfg
exists. Should this work? When i statically have the 'url --url' line
in, it seems to at least move through the %pre.. However, when the url
is dynamic, it doesn't even process the %pre (even though %pre happens
before 'url --url' is proccessed (I imagine that kickstart does some
kind of sanity check on all kickstart syntax before doing %pre)
Does anyone have any idea on this?
If necessary, i can send my entire setup.
thanks,
