A repository providing example kickstart files and snippets.
pykickstart (kickstart) is used for the automatic deployment and configuration. At while-true-do.io, we are using CentOS and Fedora and are also using kickstart.
This repository contains kickstart files and snippets.
The files are located in the files directory. They can be used "as provided". You should consider to tune them to your needs. Changing passwords or partitioning is recommended.
The snippets are located in the snippets directory. They can be used as a starting point for specific features or ideas.
Using kickstart files requires a supported OS.
Install from Github
git clone https://github.com/while-true-do/kickstart-files.git
There are many ways to trigger the installation via kickstart. For a more detailed documentation, you can have a look at the official documentation
You can use kickstart during the regular installation. You only need to interrupt the grub menu via ESC and type in the proper command.
linux inst.ks=https://<server>/<path>
If you want to make use of kickstart for your KVM Hypervisor, you can use virt-install.

Automated testing is done with Travis CI.
