Description

This test will verify that anaconda can download the requested kickstart file using a HTTP url. It requires a valid kickstart file and a working HTTP host.


How to test

  1. Prepare a valid kickstart file. For help creating a kickstart file, examine the file /root/anaconda-ks.cfg on a previously installed system. This file contains the kickstart instructions used to install that system. For additional guidance on kickstart syntax, see Anaconda/Kickstart.
  2. Copy the kickstart file to a publicly-accessible place on your HTTP host.
  3. Boot the system and add a ks argument like the following to the boot command line:
    ks=http://server.tld/path/to/your/ks.cfg
    An example of a kickstart file is:
    http://rhe.fedorapeople.org/install/ks.cfg

Expected Results

  1. The ks.cfg is successfully obtained from the specified location
  2. The install should proceed in accordance with the directives in the ks.cfg file
  3. Anaconda should not prompt for user interaction if ks.cfg is not specified
