NAME

       system-config-kickstart - graphical interface for creating kickstart files

SYNOPSIS

       system-config-kickstart [KSFILE]

DESCRIPTION

       system-config-kickstart	provides a simple method of creating a kickstart file that can be used to automate the installation process on Red
       Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora, and derived distributions.

       If given, the program will take its initial settings from the KSFILE provided on the command line.  This allows editing of  existing  kick-
       start files.

       Currently,  this program has some serious limitations.  For example, it cannot work with LVM nor do advanced RAID and BTRFS configurations.
       These are supported by kickstart, but the graphical program does not provide a way to set them up nor manipulate them in existing kickstart
       files.

OPTIONS

       --help	 Print out program usage.

       --generate FILENAME
		 Examine the system and create a kickstart file that more or less matches, writing the output to FILENAME.

       --display DISPLAY#
		 Specify the X display to use.

EXAMPLES

       To run the program type:

       system-config-kickstart
