I'm trying to install a CentOS 7 via PXE and a kickstart file with a addon repository.
To do so, i first created a directory 'CENTOS70-64' with a complete copy of the contents of the CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1503-01.iso (with .treeinfo and .discinfo)
I wrote a kickstart with a minimal installation (@core), and it works like a charm!
Then, i tried to add a new repository 'updates', which contains some homemade RPMs, but this doesn't work.
I created a directory 'CENTOS70-64/updates', added my RPMs and did a 'createrepo updates'
A subdirectory 'repodata' has been created with the usual repomd.xml and the 3 others xml.gz files.
I updated the previous kickstart by adding the new repo and added a package named 'prod-utils' which is located in 'updates'.
Unfortunately, the rpm is not found, and the installation is interrupted.
Here are the kickstart used
Code: Select all
install
url --url http://192.168.100.1/CENTOS70-64
repo --name="CentOS 7 x86_64 Update" --baseurl=http://192.168.100.1/CENTOS70-64/updates
lang en_US

part /home --fstype ext3 --size=500 --fsoptions=nodev --grow
%packages
@core
prod-utils
%end
%post --interpreter /bin/bash
%end
We can see the server accessing to the 'updates' repository in the httpd log

I tested the following in %post, and the package was installed normally.
- creation of a /etc/yum.repos.d/updates.repo configuration file.
- yum -y install prod-utils
So, the repository 'updates' sound good.
The package 'prod-utils' is not signed, so i tested with a CentOS 7 RPM which is not in the DVD. (compat-libstdc++-33)
But same behaviour...
I put in the 'updates' repository the latest kernel version, and the server has been installed with the default kernel.
Here is an extract of the /var/log/anaconda/

Thank you in advance for you help!
