"I will use a Fedora 9 server here (IP address 192.168.0.100) to set up a local yum repository for the Kickstart installation. The yum repository will be served using http (you can as well use ntp, ftp, etc.).

I will create the Kickstart configuration file ks.cfg on a second system, a Fedora 9 desktop, with the tool system-config-kickstart (which requires a desktop environment), and then transfer it to our Fedora 9 Kickstart server.

This tutorial is for the i386 architecture; if you're using x86_64, replace i386 with x86_64 where necessary."
