13.2. Starting a Kickstart installation automatically by using a local volume

Procedure

1. Boot the system by using a local media (a CD, DVD, or a USB flash drive).

2. At the boot prompt, specify the required boot options.

   1. If a required repository is in a network location, you may need to configure the network by using the ip= option. The installer tries to configure all network devices by using the DHCP protocol by default without this option.

   2. In order to access a software source from which necessary packages will be installed, you may need to add the inst.repo= option. If you do not specify this option, you must specify the installation source in the Kickstart file.

      For more information about installation sources, see Kickstart commands for installation program configuration and flow control.

3. Start the installation by confirming your added boot options.

   The installation begins now, and the Kickstart file is automatically detected and used to start an automated Kickstart installation.
