I was trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop Using Kickstart from the tutorial here.
Here is ks.cfg file
#Generated by Kickstart Configurator
#platform=x86
#System language
lang en_US
#Language modules to install
langsupport en_IN ml_IN --default=en_US
#System keyboard
keyboard us
#System mouse
mouse
#System timezone
timezone America/New_York
#Root password
rootpw --disabled
#Initial user
user Test --fullname "Test" --iscrypted --password $1$N/vvAxo8$Q71h/eNwDh75x5IXQ8snN/
#Reboot after installation
reboot
#Use text mode install
text
#Install OS instead of upgrade
install
#Use CDROM installation media
cdrom
#System bootloader configuration
bootloader --location=mbr
#Clear the Master Boot Record
zerombr yes
#Partition clearing information
clearpart --all --initlabel
#Disk partitioning information
part swap --size 2048
part / --fstype ext4 --size 1 --grow
#System authorization infomation
auth --useshadow --enablemd5
#Firewall configuration
firewall --disabled
#Do not configure the X Window System

And my isolinux/txt.cfg look like
default autoinstall
label autoinstall
menu label ^Automatically Install Ubuntu
kernel /casper/vmlinuz
append file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg –
label live
menu label ^Try Ubuntu without installing
kernel /casper/vmlinuz
append file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash --
label live-install
menu label ^Install Ubuntu
kernel /casper/vmlinuz
append file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper only-ubiquity initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash --
label check
menu label ^Check disc for defects
kernel /casper/vmlinuz
append boot=casper integrity-check initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash --
label memtest
menu label Test ^memory
kernel /install/mt86plus
label hd
menu label ^Boot from first hard disk
localboot 0x80
I am getting lot of messages about installation progress, but after that the normal installation pop-up menu appearing(Try Ubuntu, Install Ubuntu etc..), on clicking that the normal installation begins as usual.
Does anyone faced such problem ?
am I doing anything wrong ?
Any help will be appreciated.....
