[Spacewalk-list] Kickstart failing

[Sean Laurent]

Heh. Yeah, I had picked up on that. :)

I guess the real questions are: why isn't pxelinux.0 in there? Who was
supposed to put it there? And where should it come from?

I followed the CentOS instructions at
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/PackageManagement/Spacewalk and it doesn't say
anything about copying anything into /tftpboot. So either something failed
or I'm missing a step... :)

Suggestions?

Thanks.
