Just for completeness, here's what I got after my cobbler import:

I don't use kickstart yet, mostly because each system I set up ends up
being so customized that I haven't figured out a way to leverage kickstart
well. That's why those sections are completely empty.

I had no issue PXE booting F17 using either i386 or x86_64...
Does it start the install or is there some other issue? I did have
problems in the the --url=$tree was coming up wrong and my install failed
(I had to tell Cobbler it was Fedora 17). But it all works for me...

*Subject: *[cobbler] How to PXE boot F17 now?
Has anyone figured out how to PXE boot F17 from Cobbler now? Specifically,
I'm trying to figure out how to specify the "inst.repo=" line now that
it's
required.
I tried adding it via --kopts, but that hasn't appeared to work. I'll keep
experimenting, but was wondering if anyone had solved this already.
