  • Red Hat 7 Kickstart failed.

    Posted on

    hey Reader,

    I'm having a problem with my kickstart file I think. When I boot my system with the CD-ROM (which is having RHEL 7.1 on it) and then hit tab to insert the following command: 'inst.ks=IP/ks/rhel710.ks'. It loads for a while, and it checks a few things, but after the checking it just goes to the normal installation interface. I dont know where I can find the log's to show, if anyone is able to help me please.

    P.S. This is my kickstart file
    lang en_US
    keyboard us
    timezone Europe/Amsterdam --isUtc
    rootpw $1$/SK1tGcK$bb8nO2ooA8SehW4Inhtor0 --iscrypted
