The article about installing RedHat from NFS using ISO’s is one way to do it, but why use it when RedHat has kickstart? Hell, with RedHat 9 they have a graphical tool to create the kickstart file (kickstart configurator)! If I was going to install a number of machines and teach people how to install RedHat at the same time this is the way I would show them:
1. Use kickstart and create a standardized configuration for clients and servers.
2. Install RedHat on clients and servers (unattended).
3. Document procedures for future reference.
Why work hard when you can work smart!
