Hi,
I am using kickstart method for CentOS installation. The install is done using mirror site URL and not CD/DVD ISOs. However, the system is initially booted from 32-bit CentOS CD. When the install process starts I get errors as: - package rpm not found - abort/continue? - package lvm2 not found - abort/continue? - package grub not found - abort/continue? - ... - ...
If I change install URL to 32-bit ISOs then everything works fine. Do I need to use 64-bit boot CD for this install?

I dunno know for sure, but I always use the 32 bit CD for 32 bit kickstart installs, and the 64 bit for 64 bit
I've never had a problem doing that.
I have one large kickstart with repo's/urls defined for both x86 and x64 and I swap comments when applicable.
Yeah, me too. I have a centos32.ks and a centos64.ks and so far both are identical expect for one line near the top where I swap the location of the repository. Whenever I make changes I copy one file over the other one and change that line. So far no problems.

I also have same kickstart files except change in url and NTP settings (for VMware server). I will verify again if I made some silly mistake somewhere in kickstart file. Thanks for the replies...
