Build ISO in 1.2.X contains an option to include the entries for
various
system records on the ISO. Each system will appear by name. If you don't
specify it, they are left off, and you just get the profiles. Naturally
the profile records do not know anything about your system-specific
customizations you have made in cobbler, so to include these, it's just:
cobbler buildiso --systems=sys1,sys2,sys3
And that will put those entires into the menu. We can't put all the
system records in the menu automatically because there are limits to how
long a syslinux menu can be. The Cobbler live cd was intended to be an
alternative to this (it is more dynamic and can look up a system by
searching for the mac address), though this solution does not work in
the static IP case.
This is very useful for our (non-DHCP) environment - thanks! Will Kickstart then use the
network details specified in the system record or will we still have to manually add them
during the install?
