Ok, figured this out... It was in isolinux/isolinux.cfg ... but the
Kickstart
documentation still isn't very clear about the values of "ks=cdrom" or
"ks=harddisk"
(or whatever)... i.e. WHERE on the respective medias the file is
expected to be.
Is it in the root directory for a cdrom? Is it in /tmp/ for the harddisk?

Is there an easy way to debug this? Because it's blowing out, and I
sure can't
tell where along the way it is... especially since the box reboots
before I have
much of a chance to delve into things and figure out how far along it got.
I'll publish whatever scripts, etc. I come up with once I have things
working.
BTW: if anyone has a link for a Kickstart mailing list or IRC forum, that
would be handy too...

Any clues on where documentation for FC5 can be found? I've only
found it for
RH9...
Thanks,
