11.Manually adjust the Kickstart configuration file that you have created with a
text editor if desired.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 Installation Guide is a good source of information
regarding all Kickstart file options. It is also available at the following Web site:

8.5.3 Performing a Kickstart installation
It is possible to run unattended installations with the kickstart file stored on a
floppy disk, on a CD/DVD, on an USB key, on a partition in the system, or on
some NFS/HTTP/FTP server. In this section we provide instructions on how to
run an automatic installation with the kickstart file stored on a NFS exported
directory, accessible through the network.
Pass the location of the Kickstart file during boot. BOOTP does not have the
ability to provide anything more than the location to the bootable image and the
server IP address hosting the Kickstart file. Use the Open Firmware prompt to
pass the required parameters:
1. Type 8 during the LPAR boot process to go to the Open Firmware prompt, as
shown in Figure 8-23.
Note: If you have not defined any disk partition options or you were unsure of
your disk partition layout, we recommend that you manually edit the Kickstart
file to include the following information after the #Partition clearing information
section:
#Disk partitioning information
autopart
This option will automatically create disk partitions.
