I used to do this sort of thing some years ago, back in the time of
RHL 7.x. It was before ks supported include, and before someone
mentioned the idea of simply overwriting the ks file.
I'm kind of curious, 'cause I use much the same method as Chip does,
by using an include? How would you overwrite the ks file, in situ,
so to speak?
makestuff >new.ks
mv new.ks ks.cfg
It seems it does (or did) get reread. It relied on a quirk, and the
include was invented to solve the need.
As I implied, I didn't actually do this, but if you go back to the ks
archives for 2002 or so (back in the time of RHL 7.x) you should find
it mentioned.
Straus out:-) 55/2.
