[Spacewalk-list] specific repo to a server with kickstart

[P.Cookson at bham.ac.uk]

Hi Jerome

I've been using Spacewalk to patch systems for a little while but only started to look in to provisioning with Spacewalk more recently.

However, if I understand your question properly, the Base Channel is set when creating a Kickstart Distribution. Subsequently, this is where the packages will come from for installation.

Note, unlike Satellite, Spacewalk does NOT make the OS disk structure (Kickstart Tree) required for installation - this needs to be performed as a separate task. The Tree Path, within Kickstart Distribution, should be set to whatever location you download these to.

As Spacewalk is utilising Kickstart/Koan and Cobbler, under the covers, I believe there'll be other ways of achieving the same thing, in an even more automated way, though.

Regards
Phil

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have an idea if it is possible with kickstart (Spacewalk) to define once a specific repo on a server during his creation?

Thanks and best regards,
Jerome
