Probably easiest to use /usr/sbin/ksconfig, and generate a Kickstart
config that suits ye... and then use that... you'll want to play
around to get it to fit on the disk, but it should be grand in the
end.

Then ye'll need to use thingummy wotsit (ARGHH BEER AFTER MATCH
ARGHHH!) bootnet.img to get yer booting going on... and have the
kickstart config exported by nfs from the server, summat like

	/boot/kickstart *.dom.ain(ro,root_squash)

and then do the usual magic with the floppy!  All on the redhat
website...

BACK TO THTEPUB!
