Hi.

I am working on a project that allows installation of many os'es "one
click".

First some info.

root at picachu:/# uname -a
Linux picachu 2.6.26-1-xen-686 #1 SMP Fri Mar 13 22:30:40 UTC 2009 i686
GNU/Linux


As of today i have got the following OS's to work with virt-install:

Fedora 8 and Centos5

Example of the commands i use to install Fedora 8:

virt-install --name=fedora --ram=1024 --os-type=linux --os-variant=fedora8
--force
--noautoconsole --nographics --network=bridge:eth0 --disk
path=/dev/vg1/fedora-disk --location
http://archive.nl.eu.kernel.org/fedora-archive/releases/8/Fedora/i386/os/
-x "ks=http://10.0.3.30/kickstart/fedora.ks" --paravirt


Example of the commands i use to install Centos:

virt-install --name=centos --ram=990 --os-type=linux --os-variant=centos5
--force --noautoconsole --nographics
 --network=bridge:eth0 --file=/dev/vg1/centos-disk --location
http://mirror.ii.uib.no/sites/msync.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/ -x
 "ks=http://10.0.3.30/kickstart/centos.ks"



Now i miss the commands to get a working:
gentoo, suse  and slackware install.

Does anyone of you know the best way to do this? I didn't find any
"--location" mirror to the OS'es above, what locations should i install
from?


Regards
Petter
