Hi, Have been reading Tony's doc on Anaconda. I need your help about a certain issue I am having. When using buildinstall I am getting certain errors. When I run buildinstall It dosent create my images directory. It just creates a images directory but no files in it. Here is the output which I get from the buildinstall command. Can you help me debug what this is. Any help you can provide will be great. I dont have an updates.img file in i386/RedHat/base/updates.img (from what I gauged from the Doc this isnt necessary) --------------------------------- [root@TheArgonServer anaconda-runtime]# buildinstall --pkgorder /home/keith/rh80cd/pkgorder.txt --comp dist-8.0 --version 8.0 --release \ "Redhat 8.0(Psyche)" /home/keith/rh80cd/i386 Building images... /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 101: [:=: unary operator expected /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 105: [:=: unary operator expected /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 109: [:too many arguments /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 144: [:!=: unary operator expected /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 148: [:=: unary operator expected /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 152: [:=: unary operator expected /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 160: [:=: unary operator expected /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 165: [:=: unary operator expected /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 169: [:too many arguments /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 324: [:too many arguments /home/keith/rh80cd/i386/buildinstall.tree.22553/upd-instroot: line 636: [:=: unary operator expected Assembling package list...
