I'm trying to install CentOS 6.2 by kickstart, and I'm using the stock minimal ISO and the auto-generated anaconda-ks.cfg. After the installation finished partition the hard drive, I get an error message saying "Unable to read package metadata", and the /tmp/anaconda.log has the following line:
ERROR: Error downloading treeinfo file: [Error 14] PYCURL ERROR 6 - "Couldn't resolve host 'cdrom:sr0'"
My kickstart file:
# Kickstart file automatically generated by anaconda.
#version=DEVEL
