Thanks, I caught my mistake after I set out this email to the list :( Thanks a million for the help Dwc From: Thomas Baumann [mailto:tom@xxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, August 06, 2003 1:34 AM To: Chan, Dominic Cc: anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: how to copy file at post? You missed that /dev/cdrom does not exist. If you look at /tmp you find nodes for cdrom, that's why I told you in my ks.cfg (a few messages before) to perform a mkdir -p /mnt/yoursource mount /tmp/cdrom /mnt/yoursource cp /mnt/yoursource/yourfile /mnt/sysimage/tmp/yourfile umount /tmp/cdrom The same is for your fd0. You have to create a node for fd0 (mknod /tmp/fd0 2 0) and then you can mount wahtever you want. Thomas. Zitat von "Chan, Dominic" <DWC@xxxxxxxxxxxx>: > I think I am going about this all wrong.
