Hi - I am not an expert at shell script writing. If /proc/cmdline looks like
option1 option2 ... ks=http://192.168.1.8/ks/ks.cfg option3 option 4 ...
How can I get the 192.168.1.8 out of this cmdline.
THanks,
Jerry

Cryptic but does the job:
$ cat /tmp/cmdline option1 option2 ... ks=http://192.168.1.8/ks/ks.cfg option3 option 4 ... $ perl -lane 'm#^ks=.*//((\d+.){3}\d+)/#&&print($1)&&exit for@F' /tmp/cmdline 192.168.1.8 $
Obviously, you should use /proc/cmdline instead of the file in /tmp as I used. Filipe
It's Saturday A.M, so please forgive me.

A 12 gage shotgun ought to get the job done!

Seriously, by the time I got to this thread, answers had flowed like river water, so that left only my perverse sense of humor in play.
Hi - I am not an expert at shell script writing.
Me neither, Perl is my thing, and with regular expressions this would be trivial.

This is probably not the best approach, but it should work:
awk -F "ks=" /proc/cmdline '{print $2}' | awk -F / '{print $3}'
On the other hand, if I can call awk, I could also call Perl...

Sorry for the intromision, but I tried it and didn't work :S
Greets!
I didn't see the original, so I'm jumping in here...

This should work with bash/ksh or similar shells
a=$(cat /proc/cmdline) a=${a##*ks=http://} a=${a%%/*} echo $a

Try:
# IPADDR=`cat /proc/cmdline | sed 's/.*/([1-9][0-9]*.[0-9][0-9]*.[0-9][0-9]*.[0-9][0-9]*)/.*/\1/'`
This will find an IP in between /.../

Actually shorter sed line:
# IPADDR=`cat /proc/cmdline | sed 's/.*/([0-9]+.[0-9]+.[0-9]+.[0-9]+)/.*/\1/'`
When testing the '+' operator initially, it didn't work for me, then it occurred to me to escape it from the shell.
I didn't realize bash used '+', need to look that one up.
Also this regex isn't so picky about ip address validity, but since it's in kickstart chances are it's a valid ip.

Actually shorter sed line:
# IPADDR=`cat /proc/cmdline | sed 's/.*/([0-9]+.[0-9]+.[0-9]+.[0-9]+)/.*/\1/'`
And shorter still:
sed 's/.*/(([0-9]+.){3,}[0-9]+).*/\1/'
which uses {3,} to specify the 3 occurrences of [0-9]+.
However, I would simply go for something like:
sed 's,.*http://%5C(.*%5C)/ks/.*,%5C1,'

How about:
sed 's|.*\bks=\w+://([^/]+)/.*|\1|'
that would work with nfs, ftp or https as well and would not falsly match another URL in the cmdline. Plus it does not require the hostname to be an IP address.
