Bai,

So you can do a few things:

If you try to install puppet in your %post, you'll need to ensure either epel and/or puppet repos are part of your cobbler install.  I prefer to let puppet lay down all my repos, so I don't include either in a cobbler install.  To include all the repos from your profile, you'd have this in your kickstart in the %post:


$yum_config_stanza


You will note, mine is commented out...

Interesting.  I didn't realize you could do things like that with %post.

How do you add the epel and puppet?  When I try to run puppet manually, the command isn't found.  And yum tries to connect to the internet instead of the cobbler repo.

The sample template I'm using includes puppet snippets, but they don't seem to do anything.  Is that because I don't have the epel added to cobbler?

Thanks.

Bai,

One of the things I do is have my own custom kickstart file.  Part of that kickstart is including puppet...

The aforementioned link is the kick start I use with cobbler.  All you really need to do is define ksmeta having packages=puppet and that will ensure puppet gets installed...  Well that and you'll also need to include epel yum repo...

HTH,

So I'm able to get my machine built using cobbler.  However, it doesn't seem to have installed and set up puppet.

Does anyone know of any good tutorials or documentation that I can look at?  Most of the stuff I'm finding assumes you're just installing puppet, not continuing on from a cobbler kickstart.

Thanks.
