Hi,
Is there a way for me to get the bare metal hardware to tell the
cobbler server its mac addresses and auto register somehow. From
there maybe I can write a shell script to populate the other needed
info.
yes, we usually use a default that runs a kickstart containing the
$SNIPPET('cobbler_register'). This will create the system records for
you. The rest then is just scripting. Of course one has to be a bit
careful with defaults like that, so we change it afterwards.
Also don't forget to re-enable netboot for the real install because of
pxe_just_once.
Greetings
Andre
