      Workaround:

      Description: Step 6 on page 18 reads, "PXE-boot the serverX virtual machine and initiate a Kickstart installation." The instructions that it lists are specific to an ILT class, but they should also include instructions for the VT environment.

      I'm wondering if it makes sense to have an appendix page or a page in the introductory unit that describes (possibly with screenshots) how to perform different types of actions in ILT, VT (NoMachine), VT (NoVNC), and ROL. I actually think this would be a really good idea. For example, the steps to reset desktopX and serverX are different for all of these environments (even between VT with NoMachine vs. VT with NoVNC). I really like how the new manuals simply tell students to reset desktopX or serverX when necessary (it assumes that students already know how to do it or that they can ask the instructor for clarification). The same thing could be done for the times where we need students to use PXE.

      So I feel that either instructions on how to PXE in VT are needed on this page (I can provide them to you if you need them) or we need some sort of appendix describing how to initiate PXE in VT. This type of page would probably useful for all classes.
