That is an issue with anaconda, if it finds local install media, it overrides the askmethod options and just goes ahead with local media, Try this - boot your machine with the local media and when you get to the point where it asks for language, ( first dialog ), just remove the local media, see if it works from remote http or not then. > The error I see on the console and in my webserver logs indicate that > anaconda is trying to look for the following files: > > RELEASE-NOTES-en_US.UTF-8.html > RELEASE-NOTES-en_US.UTF-8 > RELEASE-NOTES-en_US.html > RELEASE-NOTES-en_US > > Where the only files on the CD's are RELEASE-NOTES-en.html and > RELEASE-NOTES-en. > > The anaconda folks seem to think that CentOS should be using the full > en_US variant: > > https://www.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2007-November/msg00130.html That is something worth remembering, so please go go ahead and open an issue for it on the bugs.centos.org site and assign it to me. I shall make sure its then looked at for 5.2 release. However, this is not an issue which will cause the installer to not use an install method. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
