Hi-- I'm trying to upgrade a 130 node cluster of machines with no video cards from RH6.1 to RH7.0. I have created an nfs-method kickstart system that works--if a video card is in the machine. If not, and I add console=ttyS0,9600n8 to the SYSLINUX.CFG, then the installer runs ok and starts spitting stuff out the serial port. However, the installer then crashes right before it starts upgrading the packages. It happily works up until the standard redhat screen showing each of the packages zipping by comes up. There it hangs. This has happened on a number of boxes. Does anyone have any idea if the install program will even work with the console on a serial port? If this doesn't work soon, I'm just going to reclone all the drives... thanks, j ----- jeff oishi Rose Center for Earth and Space American Museum of Natural History joishi at amnh.org
