_rubengrr .. cant find how to specify a machine's hostname when using kickstart+preseed .. my box ends up with the name 'kickseed'07:45
soren_ruben: In your kickstart file, find the network line and add "--hostname somethingelse"08:04
sorenEr... That might have to be "--hostname=somethingelse"08:04
_rubensoren: had just found that08:16
_rubenah .. didnt use the =08:16
_rubeni ended up with a cant find a kernel to install .. which sounds kinda odd in this relation08:16
_rubenlets try with the =08:16
sorenNot sure if it matters. It might :)08:17
_rubengonna try now :)08:18
_rubensoren: you happen to know how to tell kickstart/preseed to use a network mirrror for installation instead of the cd that's used to boot? i can only find references on changing the network sources for the target system, not during installation08:20
sorenWhy would you want to do that?08:21
_rubenhmm .. after adding the = i get "installation cd couldnt be mounted" .. odd08:21
_rubensoren: network is more up to date than cd08:21
sorenAh.08:22
_rubeneventually i'll probably move to a pxe environment which would kinda 'fix' that as well .. but would require some more time to setup :)08:22
sorenHm... I don't know then. I don't really know much about kickstarts, I just glanced at the kickseed code.08:23
sorenYou'll have to wait for cjwatson to show up.08:23
_rubenthe "cant find cd" was probably a network hickup .. selecting retry did work08:23
_rubenbah .. seems im now getting bitten by this bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=47947314:43
ubottuDebian bug 479473 in debian-installer "debian-installer: DHCP client fails to assign address during install" [Normal,Open]14:43
_rubennever mind .. turned out to be a typo in my dhcpd config (gateway not within subnet)15:09
