### Using a floppy for linux kickstart file or preseed
Once the vm has been started, and the boot process is in place, sometimes a response file is
required. For ESXi enviroment, sometimes is easier use a floopy disk:
ie RedHat:
``` {.text}
"floppy_files": [
"folder/ks.cfg"
],
..
"boot_command": "<tab> text ks=floppy <enter><wait>"
```
