Re: question on kickstart.

Hi.

To answer your question on howto transfer your files from the floppy
during install it's very easy. In your ks.cfg file after %post add mount
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy and after that the copy command cp /mnt/floppy/file
/etc   for example. I'm not completely sure about the reboot issue but you
should be able to add reboot last in your ks.cfg file after %post. As long
as your ks.cfg is used you will be in a chrooted environment in your
installation i.e. /mnt/sysimage would be chrooted /.
