Hi
Is there anyway to stop anaconda going to the manual install
screen when kickstarting or at least increase the timeout?
I'm trying to remotely kickstart hosts on a slow network. Sometimes
the pxe boot times out but that's no problem - I can just try again.
Dhcp was timing out but I fixed that by passing a large dhcptimeout
value to anaconda.
However it's then (mostly) timing out when downloading the kickstart
file which means a long trip to push the restart button. After a few
retries it succeeds but it would be a lot easier if I could get rid
of the timeouts.
Thanks
