[techtalk] Kickstart woes

Hi all,

I've currently been playing with Kickstart.  When I tried it out, it
booted the kernel on the disk, insmod'd the network card driver,
successfully got a dhcp address, and then insmod'd nfs.o.  It gives no
error messages at all; the last message is the nfs module line. 
However, the installation just aborts.  My ks.cfg is pasted below-- any
ideas will be much appreciated.

TIA,
Sally
