Hi,
I am still trying to get kick-start centos in my vmware5 because pxe cannot find the pxe server. I do not control the dhcp or pxe server. I have both my kickstart file and my iso image for centos6.5 on my vmware datastore, but am trying to run my kickstart file from VMware guest.
Can I tell the command line to run from the datastore in VMWare? Or must I convert my kickstart file to a floppy image to run from VMware console?
I have the centos image on the DVD mounted from my datastore. Now I need to convert the kickstart file to a floppy image to mount on the server from my datastore
This is what google and VMWare keeps telling me but it does not make sense unless I am copying off a floppy.... What I am trying to do is turn the kickstart file into a floppy image so I can kickstart off the floppy in vmware.
Create a disk image from the physical drive: cat /dev/fd0 > imagefile.img
Copy image to the physical drive: cat imagefile.img > /dev/fd0
Help figuring out that silly little piece that is keeping me from building a VM guest from my kickstart file is much appreciated.
