ks and ip missing on basic graphics install #3

Closed phillxnet closed 9 years ago

From the forum post http://forum.rockstor.com/t/install-problems/240/6 it seems the the basic graphics mode install option is missing the following boot options.

ip=dhcp ks=hd:LABEL=Rockstor\x203\x20x86_64:/ks.cfg

This brings it in line with the normal graphics mode install. Thanks to Dustin_Van on the forum for assisting in bringing this to our attention.

As of testing iso version 3.8-6 this is in place as when selecting basic graphics mode install the above ip and ks entries are evident when pressing the TAB key. However I get the following when trying to install with this option in a KVM:- basic-graphics-mode-ks-install

Then after a long pause it progresses to:- basic-graphics-mode-ks-install2

Any Ideas, I will try on real hardware in a bit.

OK, the above seem to be the result of trying to install on a VirtIO system drive which is not what this issue is about and is not currently supported (need to have that drive as SATA not VirtIO). Tested install in basic graphics mode and both ip and auto partitioning functioned as expected. Closing as works for me.
