fedoraでcobblerを使用すると、次のように動作します。Webサーバーから入手できるディストリビューションを追加します
sudo cobbler distro add --name=Install_Ubuntu_Server-11.04-x86_64 --kernel=/var/www/cobbler/mountedvd/x86_64/ubuntu/server/11.04/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/linux --initrd=/var/www/cobbler/mountedvd/x86_64/ubuntu/server/11.04/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/initrd.gz --arch=x86_64 --breed=debian
次に、プロファイルを追加します。--koptsに続くカーネルオプションに注意してください
sudo cobbler profile add --name=Install_Ubuntu_Server-11.04-x86_64 --distro=Install_Ubuntu_Server-11.04-x86_64 --kickstart=/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/ubuntu_server.seed --kopts="auto=true, priority=critical lang=english locale=en_US console-keymaps-at/keymap=us hostname=ubuntu_server domain=domainname console-setup/ask_detect=false console-setup/layoutcode=us"
