FC7 kickstart: CDROM non found

[Gerald Waugh]

Hi,
 
We have problems similar on some servers, when using usb cdrom.
We wait for the pause when the boot xcreen reads "Loading 
 

*	  Watch the display, when pause at "Loading /sbin/loader"

*	Quickly remove and reinsert the USB cable to the CD ROM Drive
*	You should see an info box "Loading USB storage driver"
*	If you see "Select Language" then you missed it.

*	Power down and start over..

Subject: FC7 kickstart: CDROM non found


Hi,

I moved my personalized install from FC6 to F7 but i'm getting into
troubles
with the ks.cfg file.

My iso works flawless if run from a cd drive that's connected to the
primary ide


but does not work using a cdrom on the secondary controller or from an
usb cdrom.

Iso boots then i get the request to input manually the position of the
kickstart
file.

Log shows

getting kickstart file from first CDROM


no CDROM found

I also have to say that the FC6 iso is installing (with the kickstart)
from
primary, secondary and usb cdroms on the same machine.

Here is my relevant isolinux.cfg

label linux


kernel vmlinuz
append ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg initrd=initrd.img skipddc quiet

Probably the problem depends from the "device waltrough" of anaconda,
but thats
my guess.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!



Tnx for the support!
