hi,
i'm trying to kickstart a new VM using the kernel parameters field,
however, when I enter any text in there, it requires me to give a path
for the kernel ?? is that deliberate ? if so, should that be the path to
the kernel via http:// or on the local filesystem of the node ??
Thanks
Alex

FWIW and in case someone is interested, you can use the following kernel
parameters to kickstart from network (without pxe - i'd prefer that, but
it's not always an option) :
ks=http://X.X.X.X/ks/ks.cfg ksdevice=eth0 ip=X.X.X.X netmask=255.255.255.0
it'll require you however to have the kernel & initrd.img files - you
can get those from the distro cd / iso (even jus the network install)
and put them somewhere, doesnt matter - just reference those files in
the "kernel path" and "initrd path" and it'll work .. e.g.
kernel path [ /var/www/html/repo/centos/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz ]
initrd path [ /var/www/html/repo/centos/images/pxeboot/initrd.img ]

I'm not sure this is blocked for fedora.
also, iirc, you can place them on the iso domain, and use an iso:// notation
