Kickstart and NFS

[Chris Greer]

I'm watching this thread as well, because I'm getting the
EXACT same thing and Justin.  I installed all the nodes via
ftp, but you can't kickstart over ftp.
The documentation that comes on the RedHat CD is much better 
than what is on the web, because it is updated to reflect 
newer install options.  
The also give a few example scripts.
But still, I was stuck on the NFS.
