Trouble in setting the network through kick start in rescue mode boot for centos-5.1

[Priya Ainapur]

Hi all,

 

I am trying to write a kick start file for booting the centos-5.1 in
rescue mode.

 

The command I used to build the iso image is:

 

mkisofs -o CentOS-rescue.iso  -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c
isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -q -R
-J -v -T .

 

My kick start file looks as shown below:

 

# Kickstart file 

# Make it install in text mode

text

 

# Full install of OS instead of upgrade

install

 

# Use cdrom for install

cdrom

lang en_US.UTF-8

keyboard us

#

network --bootproto=static --device=eth0 --onboot=on --ip 192.168.1.2
--netmask 255.255.255.0 --nameserver 172.16.1.3,172.16.1.4 --gateway
192.168.1.1

 

#### END

 

Even though I gave the network settings configuration in the kick start
file, the anaconda installer pops up the network settings confirmation
window when I boot from the CD.

Please help me in solving this.

 

 

Thanks in advance

 

Priya
