Locane,
Awesome - thanks for the help! I will try this later today...
Quick question, does that perform an actual unattended install or does a GUI start up as
if I wanted to boot via CD?
The reason I'm asking is I'm trying to use KOAN to kick start this unattended (as
in not needing to manually intervene).
Anyway - will try this here shortly... I did have "root=/boot.iso" (well used
the iso name I imported) but as mentioned previously, I'm trying to use a kickstart
(ultimately I'll be putting in some additional templating stuff which is why I am
trying to do this in the fashion I described)...
Appreciate it!
Flossy

Hey Scot, I have a working CentOS 7 livecd and didn't need to
edit the
kickstart, just the kernerl parameters. See below from my query to this list
about a month ago. Maybe it will help.
It worked after I tweaked it - I had to add the kernel parameter
"root=live:/boot.iso" to the PXE config line, where "boot.iso" is the
name
of the original ISO that livemedia-creator made before getting PXE
converted.
For others finding this on the internets, I had to make a profile
called
"livecd" with the distro, and then I had to add the kernel option to the
profile with the following command:
cobbler profile edit --name livecd
--kopts="root=live:/boot.iso"
