RE: 7.2 Kickstart fails...

Try using the genhdlist from the 7.2 distro (anaconda-runtime-7.2-7)

Subject: 7.2 Kickstart fails...


Installing from a machine running 7.1 via ftp, I have these problems... 
After copying both CD's to a common directory, I run.. 
/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/genhdlist  /path/to/the/folder 
where "folder" is the root of the 7.2 distro. 
I then check the hdlist and hdlist2 files which have been updated. good 
so far. 
but when I try to build a machine using a kickstart floppy made from a 
bootnet disk image from 7.2, it gets as far as 
Probing for mouse type:     Generic -  3 Button Mouse (PS/2) 
Traceback (innermost last): 
    File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 589, in ? 
        instClass.setInstallDate(id) 
        . 
        .  (some errors in kickstart.py listed) 
        . 
KeyError 24 
then it stops telling me it's safe to reboot. 
  
Now... 
Installing from a machine running 7.2 I get an error telling me that it
cannot 
find the netstg1.img file which I know is there and I can get to it via anon
ftp. 
That's as far as I get with either of them. 
Kickstart works great for me from a 7.1 server, building 7.1 boxes but 
so far 
7.2 is a dead fish. Can anyone help me clear this up?
