Main: MAIN Redhat Kickstart
By: Steven Gomez
Abstract: Red Hat's Kickstart installations offer a means to automate the installation process, either partially or fully. Kickstart files contain answers to all questions normally asked by the installation program, such as what time zone you want the system to use, how the drives should be partitioned, or which packages should be installed. Providing a prepared Kickstart file when the installation begins therefore allows you to perform the installation automatically, without need for any intervention from the user.
Kickstart features can be an Admin's best friend. This session will present examples of how to use the Kickstart system with RHEL/CentOS platforms to automate the creation of 'cookie cutter' systems in an easily repeatable manner. Working examples of various methods using of Kickstarts will be included.

With Linux SoftRAID, however, don't believe the hype - 'zero downtime' has nothing to do with hardware!
