mkkickstart - create a description file from the current
machine.
SYNOPSIS
mkkickstart [--version] [--nonet] [--nox]
[--nfs <host:path>] [--bootp] [--dhcp]
DESCRIPTION
mkkickstart is deprecated. It longer works properly. Use
the /root/anaconda-ks.cfg written during installation as a
template for this machine or ksconfig to create a new con
fig.
mkkickstart creates a kickstart description file from the
current machine. It generates a description which uses the
language, dyanmic network configurations, network device
driver and root disk partitioning information from the
running system. If X11 is installed the X configuration is
also cloned.
OPTIONS
--nfs <host:path>
The script will attempt an NFS install off
<host:path>. If it is not specified then a cdrom
install is assumed
--bootp
Configure the machine via BOOTP when installing.
--dhcp Configure the machine using DHCP at bootup and when
installing.
--nonet
Do not clone the network configuration. Assume no
networking.
--nox This prevents the X configuration being cloned.
This can be useful when building a farm of machines
that do not all have the same video configuration.
--version
Displays the version of mkkickstart and exits.
