<pre style="word-wrap:break-word; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Tahoma; color:black">When the system boots up and loads the ISO, I thought it would automatically force the system to load a profile. In theory since there is no OS installed, it will start the OS installation without having you select from the cobbler menu.

Is this feature not available for non-pxe boot?
