  • How To Edit Satellite 5.8-generated Kickstart File?

    Posted on

    Hi,

    I am trying to create a custom kickstart with Satellite 5.8. If I use the Satellite UI to create the kickstart I have many tabs where I can set partitioning, packages, etc BUT I cannot edit the kickstart file itself.

    If I upload a kickstart file to the Satellite, I do not get the same tabs BUT I can edit the kickstart file.

    The problem is the Satellite-generated kickstart defaults to skipx and I want the X server and the Gnome desktop to start by default but I the UI does not present a way to change this.

    Any ideas? I contacted the live chat but they gave me a link to the Satellite 6.0 transition guide which was not helpful at all.

    Thanks!

    Jim
