=== Introduction ===
When Fedora CentOS is installed using the techniques you have used so far, the user is asked a number of questions. In some situations, it is better to provide the answers to these questions in a file rather than answer them individually. This type of file is called a ''kickstart'' file.
In this investigation, a kickstart file is provided for you. You can also create or modify a kickstart file using a regular text editor or a graphical tool.
= Preparing for Quizzes =
# What is the name of the Fedora CentOS installation program?
# Which factors recorded in your table (above) were due to the type of installation performed, and which factors were due to the amount of software installed?
# Which type of installation works best for confirming compatibility with hardware before installation? Why?
#* virt-install
#* kvm
# The kickstart installation (fedora3centos3) was a network installation. Can a kickstart file be used with a DVD installation?# The kickstart installation (fedora3centos3) was fairly fast. Why? Under what circumstances would it take a long time, even on a fast network?
# What other types of installation sources are possible (besides Live Disc, Installation Disc, and Network?)
