It looks like you are trying to install Nethserver on a 32bit version of CentOS, please be aware that Nethserver is only available for 64bit version of CentOS and therefore only available for 64bit (x86_64) based CPUs.

Hi Mark,

Uname -m giving output i686
that means it’s 64 bit… right…?

32 bit will give i386…

Ok… got it… little googling helped me to confirm… its 32 bit… sorry for asking…

Still struck…
after installing 64 bit… everything went smooth… after restart it struck on boot up with starting smartd
any clue… what went wrong…

Have you tried to install Nethserver from iso instead to see if that works out for you?

http://sourceforge.net/projects/nethserver/files/nethserver-6.6-x86_64.iso/download

Yes
first I tried that by making bootable Thumb drive. But it throws error on Kickstart configuration. Then it installs just centos. Then only I tried by installing on CentOS.

I use a VM environment were I mount the ISO on the CD drive and this works flawlessly? Can you describe your HW setup?

I have it all setup on a Virtual Box vm and on Hyper-V vm with no problems.
Are you installing with nethserver iso? or you installed Centos 6.6 and
then tried to install the nethserver packages?
