What is openvt? Ideally, I would need to either logon in automatically on virtual console or a bash shell so I could see the actual output of the script dwc -----Original Message----- From: John [mailto:red@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, August 06, 2003 9:37 PM To: anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Run once with autologon On Wed, 6 Aug 2003, Chan, Dominic wrote: > Is there a way to for RedHat install to embed a script during install > that will get kick off after its first reboot?

Put it in /etc/init.d, maybe as example Make it look like the others there, with respect to the chkconfig line(s). Don't worry too much about everything else. Choose a sequence number to get it run when you think it should, for example, before or after networking is enabled. On successful completion, it uses "chkconfig example off" so it doesn't run again. If it's an rpm, it can rpm --erase itself then too. You can use openvt to attach it to a vc, or simply use file redirection. I prefer the first. -- Please, reply only to the list.
