Dear friends,
Dear Friends,
I have centos 6.2 64 bit os in my dell server. When I try to install Ubuntu
10.04 Desktop or Ubuntu server 12.04 LTS using NFS so it is not working and
getting me error = "unable to download kickstart file".
My kickstart file configuration is :
#platform=x86, AMD64, or Intel EM64T
#version=DEVEL
# Firewall configuration
firewall --disabled
# Install OS instead of upgrade
install
# Use NFS installation media
nfs --server=10.112.16.33 --dir=/nfs/os/ks.cfg
# Root password
rootpw --iscrypted $1$3T0pmlXY$G/jNJD/2eWwNJhEraJIrl0
# System authorization information
auth --useshadow --passalgo=sha512
# Use graphical install
graphical
# Run the Setup Agent on first boot
firstboot --enable
# System keyboard

# System language

# SELinux configuration
selinux --disabled
# Installation logging level

# Reboot after installation

# System timezone
