RE: %post question

[Steven Garrett <StevenG cometsystems com>]

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.  I guess my question is more when I try to
mount the file system, all it does is hang.  I've disabled the firewall
within kickstart,so that *shouldn't* be a problem.  I wouldn't think I'd
have to start mountd, portmapper and the like for this would I since I'm
doing my install via nfs.

Thanks,

Steve

I'm not sure what that "read -s -w --" is trying to do. Try writing:

/mnt/temp/shell.sh

Remember that all paths to files on the newly installed system will have
to be prefixed with /mnt/sysimage if you use --nochroot.


Hope this helps,
Phil
