[TriLUG] calling all kickstarters

[David Both]

Here is a link to an article I co-authored with my friend, Bruce Garland, at 
Cisco while I worked there. It originally appeared in Linux Magazine.

The article covers virtually every aspect of making kickstarts work and includes 
information that is necessary but can be very difficult to find. This link is to 
the version on my own web site, which I have updated a bit: 
http://www.databook.bz/?page_id=9

The link to the Linux Magazibne version is: http://www.linux-mag.com/id/6747/

I hope this helps.
