I want to make a kickstart installation of centos 7 however, the VM starts but route me to a manual textuel installation (which succeeds).

I run this commad to start the installation

virt-install --name centos7 --ram 2500 --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/centos7.qcow2,size=8 --vcpus 1 --os-type linux --network bridge=virbr0 --graphics none --console pty,target_type=serial --location 'http://mirror.i3d.net/pub/centos/7/os/x86_64/' --initrd-inject=anaconda-ks.cfg  --extra-args 'console=ttyS0,115200n8 serial file:./anaconda-ks.cfg'

And here is the content of my anaconda-ks.cfg

Could you help please

  • What was the error that you received? Aug 25, 2019 at 5:37
  • no error, but the automatic installation does not start!! Aug 25, 2019 at 22:08
  • If the installation did not start, the reason why will be visible on the screen. You can also switch terminals to get more detailed information from the logs. Aug 26, 2019 at 1:27
