Hi,
I have been able to boot with pxe and load linux rescue, it loads loader and ask me lang, keyboard,load base from nfs, etc... then it ask me about mount chroot or skip, I just choose skip to go to shell.
What I want is boot in rescue mode and get a shell directly without having to enter lang, keyboard, nfs ip and dir, skip, etc... once booted on shell I want it automatically run a script mounted via nfs /mnt/source/myscript p.e. any idea on how to avoid all those questions from rescue mode??
Yep, something like this in a kickstart file...
$ cat wbel4-rescue-ks.cfg # Kickstart configuration file RHEL/WBEL 4 Rescue Mode # #System language # lang en_US.UTF-8 # #Language modules to install # langsupport --default=en_GB.UTF-8 en_GB.UTF-8 # #System keyboard # keyboard uk # #System mouse # mouse none # #Retrieve rescue system from NFS # nfs --server=XX.XX.XX.XX --dir=/whitebox/4/en/os/i386 # #Network information # network --bootproto=dhcp
Then in /tftpboot/linux-install/pxelinux.cfg/default
label 3 kernel wbel4/vmlinuz append initrd=wbel4/initrd.img ramdisk_size=10000 text rescue ks=nfs:XX.XX.XX.XX:/kickstart/wbe l4-rescue-ks.cfg
Will.
