Bootloader timeout and default kernel checkin to git?

[Elias Hunt]

Jeremy,

 

I noticed that there was a git checking to livecd for supporting new
kickstart use of bootloader timeout and default kernel. Is there
anywhere that tells the proper format for these in the kickstart file?

 

Generally I'd bug off list, but I know I've seen a number of questions
about this before on list, and figured everyone would like to know.

 

Thanks.

-Eli

Well, pykickstart isn't built yet, so the syntax isn't set in stone.
But it's basically what I suggested the last time the discussion was had
    bootloader --timeout=foo
to set the timeout and
    bootloader --default=kernel-xen
to set the default to kernel-xen.  And the options can, of course, be
combined as well as the rest of the bootloader options already available
(of which --append is really the only relevant one for live images)
