[Spacewalk-list] Kickstart errors

[Erik van Oudheusden]

Sorry, You were correct. I created a script to update (rhnpush)
everything; I forgot the base channel. After I included it, everything
worked fine. Thanks for helping me realize my mistake.

Thank You.

I'm quite a new spacewalk user, so you may want to wait for someone else
to reply.  However, here's my €0.2:
I think you have to manually rhnpush those rpms to your channel.  I
don't quite know why your original make-kickstart-tree worked as I had
to push all my rpm's to my channel before I created my kickstart tree.

But as suggested in the documentation
* https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/KickstartDistro
I generated my KS tree from a mounted DVD.  I *think* the kickstart
needs some of the boot files etc... off the boot media for that
architecture.  I've successfully created kickstart trees for both ppc
and x86_64 via the documented method.  So if your method doesn't work
I'd suggest following the documentation more closely.
