$$$$$$$$$$$$解決方法：
service cobblerd restart
cobbler get-loaders
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$問題2：
The following are potential configuration items that you may want to fix:?
1 : The 'server' field in /etc/cobbler/settings must be set to something other than localhost, or kickstarting features will not work. This should be a resolvable hostname or IP for the boot server as reachable by all machines that will use it.?
2 : For PXE to be functional, the 'next_server' field in /etc/cobbler/settings must be set to something other than 127.0.0.1, and should match the IP of the boot server on the PXE network.?
3 : some network boot-loaders are missing from /var/lib/cobbler/loaders, you may run 'cobbler get-loaders' to download them, or, if you only want to handle x86/x86_64 netbooting, you may ensure that you have installed a *recent* version of the syslinux package installed and can ignore this message entirely. Files in this directory, should you want to support all architectures, should include pxelinux.0, menu.c32, elilo.efi, and yaboot. The 'cobbler get-loaders' command is the easiest way to resolve these requirements.?
4 ：you need to set some SELinux content rules to ensure cobbler works correctly in your SELinux environment, run the following:
????? /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/tftpboot/.*" && \
????? /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/www/cobbler/images/.*"
5 : change 'disable' to 'no' in /etc/xinetd.d/rsync
??? change 'disable' to 'no' in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
6 : comment out 'dists' on /etc/debmirror.conf for proper debian support?
??? comment out 'arches' on /etc/debmirror.conf for proper debian support
7 ：since iptables may be running, ensure 69, 80, and 25151 are unblocked
8 : The default pass<a href="http://www.it165.net/edu/ebg/" target="_blank" class="keylink">word</a> used by the sample templates for newly installed machines (default_pass<a href="http://www.it165.net/edu/ebg/" target="_blank" class="keylink">word</a>_crypted in /etc/cobbler/settings) is still set to 'cobbler' and should be changed, try: "openssl passwd -1 -salt 'random-phrase-here' 'your-password-here'" to generate new one?
Restart cobblerd and then run 'cobbler sync' to apply changes.
9，debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$上面這段信息大意就是：
1，編輯/etc/cobbler/settings文件，找到 server：選項，修改為適當的ip地址，本實例配置ip為：192.168.10.1
2，編輯/etc/cobbler/settings文件，找到 next_server：選項，修改為適當的ip地址，本實例配置ip為：192.168.10.1
4，SELinux的設置。如果上面已經關閉了SELinux就不用管了，SELinux的設置。如果上面已經關閉了SELinux就不用管了
3，執行 cobbler get-loaders，系統將自動下載loader程序，完成提示4的修復工作。
5，編輯/etc/xinetd.d/tftp文件，將文件中的disable字段的配置由yes改為no
?? 編輯/etc/xinetd.d/rsync文件，將文件中的disable字段的配置由yes改為no
6. 在/etc/debmirror.conf文件中注釋dists和arches
7，在iptables中將69，80，25151端口打開。如果僅僅只是在內部環境中使用，建議直接將防火墻關掉
9，提示說debmirror沒安裝。如果不是安裝 debian之類的系統，此提示可以忽略，如果需要安裝，下載地址為：
http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=debmirror
CentOS 6使用RHEL 5的包就可以。
8，修改cobbler用戶的默認密碼，可以使用如下命令生成密碼，并使用生成后的密碼替換/etc/cobbler/settings??? （default_password_crypted: ）中的密碼。生成密碼命令：
openssl passwd -1 -salt '用戶' '密碼'
其中“random-phrase-here”為干擾碼
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$解決方案：
1.vim /etc/cobbler/settings
????? server: 192.168.1.20
2.vim /etc/cobbler/settings
????? next_server: 192.168.1.20
3.? cobbler get-loaders?
4.vim /etc/sysconfig/selinuc
????? SELINUX=disabled
5. vim /etc/xinetd.d/rsync
????? disable = no
?? vim /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
????? disable = no
?? service xinetd start?
6.vim /etc/debmirror.conf
???? #@dists="sid";
?? ? #@arches="i386";
7./etc/init.d/iptables stop或
? iptables -F
? iptables -X
? /etc/init.d/iptables save
8. openssl passwd -1 -salt 'maishujie' '123456'
???? $1$maishujie$MqApDf9CDu.SNuvbG/ju70
?vim /etc/cobbler/settings?
default_password_crypted: "$1$maishujie$MqApDf9CDu.SNuvbG/ju70"
9.忽略
如遇到其他問題根據錯誤提示解決

*** TASK COMPLETE ***
cobbler會自動進行初始化工作，移除已經存在的啟動項，然后根據模板拷貝loader文件。之后再生成pxe的配置文件，生成dhcp的配置文件，最后再重啟dhcp服務。

至此，就可以使用虛擬機來測試cobbler安裝了。
