[Spacewalk-list] KVM Kickstart

[William H. ten Bensel]

It is in extra arguments, ie:

virt-install --name=xxxx --ram=8192 --vcpus=4 --mac=xxxx 
--location=http://spacewalk.domain/distro/centos --disk path=disk 
--bridge=xxxx --extra-args="ks=http://spacewalk.domain/kickstart noipv6 
noselinux serial console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200 ip=xxxxx gateway=xxxxx 
netmask=xxxx dns=xxxxx hostname=xxxx hyper=xxxxx" --os-type=linux 
--os-variant=rhel6 --arch=x86_64 --accelerate --noautoconsole --nographics


 hyper= -> This is an extra argument that is not processed by anaconda and 
can be accessed via cat /proc/cmdline for %post script snippets or 
changes.

- Thanks and good luck

I'm kickstarting KVMs with Spacewalk and Cobbler. Of course By default 
machines don't have a console.

Is any change to attache the console, cause sometimes kickstart file is 
wrong and you'll never know what's the error.

Thanks!
