Hello all,

I try to setup kickstart on RH ES 5, but it failed. 
The ks.cfg was stored in usb flash memory and also try
NFS on another systems. Both won't work; I boot from
the usb flash memory and RHES 5 was on the CDROM
drive.

1. How I can use command to ask kickstart to look for
usb flash memory? I don't have floppy on the system.
I don't know what I should call on usb flash memory?
BIOS detected the usb flash memory. I put boot.img and
ks.cfg on the usb flash memory.
I tried the following without any success:
linux ks=hd:fd0:/ks/cfg
linux ks=floppy dd
linux ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg

2. About ks.cfg file
How to add LVM on the ks.cfg?
Do I need setup raid before to add LVM? I found the
doc  the setup like this:

part raid 11 --szie 1 --grow  --ondrive=sda
part raid 12 --szie 1 --grow  --ondrive=sda
raid pv.01 --fstype ext3 --device md4 --level=RAID1
raid.11 raid.12

volgroup sysvg pv.01
logvol /    --vgname=sysvg --size=8000  --name=/
logvo2 /home --vgname=sysvg --szie=10000 --name=/home
logvo3 /tmp  --vgname=sysvg --szie=8000  --name=/tmp


Thanks.

DP
