Hi,
update
i yum installed gdm on the client along with the other 55 pkgs in the
dependency list and then logged out and back in to create the
.Xauthority file
then i got this error
[root@store-lan1-100 ~]# cd /usr/share/stateless/
[root@store-lan1-100 stateless]# python bootstrap.py -r /reserve-root -b
/reserve-boot
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "bootstrap.py", line 35, in ?
import gtk.glade
so i yum installed pygtk2-libglade
and now when i run the command, a gui interface pops up on my
workstation for a brief second and then i get this error
[root@store-lan1-100 stateless]# python bootstrap.py -r /reserve-root -b
/reserve-boot
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "bootstrap.py", line 324, in ?
run ('aware-of-vacuity.boston.redhat.com',
'dc=sml-demo,dc=devel,dc=redhat,dc=com', True)
File "bootstrap.py", line 321, in run
gui.run()
File "bootstrap.py", line 118, in run
r = replicator.BootstrapReplicator (self.ldap_uri, self.root_dn,
self.debug)
TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 3 arguments (4 given)
thx in advance,
Peter Schobel

What I was doing in the end was:
- Rather than using the yum-from-kickstart hack I'd recommend copying
that stateless-* and readonly-root RPMs into a rawhide install tree
and then doing:
$> genhdlist --hdlist /path/to/install/tree/Fedora/base/hdlist --productpath Fedora
/path/to/tree
- And then using the kickstart file attached.
It'd be great if you could confirm that works and send patches for the
HOWTO.
Cheers,
Mark.
