Sure ... the same exact kickstart file worked (and echoed lots of stuff etc) just fine when using either nfs-install or ks=floppy. And it certainly found the kickstart file from the image since only thing that didn't get run was the %post section. The only "strange" thing in the %post was that it started without doing chroot, did some tricks (which work fine elsewhere) and then went back to the normal chrooted env. > > If you know python, it's possible to have use pdb > to stop python at the point that it's running the > script.
