Hello
I am running cobbler 2.8 on a Physical machine with RHEL 7.1. The kickstart and the
OS to be loaded are served by http running on the same server. I have a similar
combination of cobbler server and target vm on the vmware infrastructure. The OS loads
fine within the vmware infrastructure. Same cobbler version, same kickstart, same OS
contents...everything's fine.
However, on the physical machines, I used to have issues where the target machine would
just hang downloading the initrd.img file, but now that seems to have magically resolved
itself. There are 490 packages to be installed and upon each reboot, a different package
hangs while installation. The message is "The file xyz.rpm cannot be opened. This is
due to a missing file, a corrupt package or corrupt media". Each reboot stops at a
different percentage pointing to a different rpm.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
Sam
