Hello All, I am doing an NFS kickstart with Redhat 7.1. I am going to be installing on systems with 1 or 2 drives that are either SCSI or IDE. I need to differentiate between SCSI and IDE for something I am doing in the %post section and I need to know whether there are 1 or 2 drives so I know how many drives to partition. I would like to be able to create just 1 ks.cfg file with some logic in it that can handle all the possible situations. My thought is that in my syslinux.cfg file I could have four options (an example below) and then pass in a variable (not sure how to do this) to help me distinguish between the different cases. label oneidedrive kernel vmlinuz append ks=nfs:10.1.1.1:/redhat.disks/ks.cfg initrd=initrd.img network label onescscidrive kernel vmlinuz append ks=nfs:10.1.1.1:/redhat.disks/ks.cfg initrd=initrd.img network label twoidedrives kernel vmlinuz append ks=nfs:10.1.1.1:/redhat.disks/ks.cfg initrd=initrd.img network label twoscsidrives kernel vmlinuz append ks=nfs:10.1.1.1:/redhat.disks/ks.cfg initrd=initrd.img network Then in the ks.cfg file I could say something like: If variable1 partition for one drive else partition for two drives and in the %post section If variablescsi do scsi stuff else do ide stuff Is it possible to pass something to the ks.cfg file? How do you do that? Or does anyone have any better ideas on how to do this? Thank you, Rebecca
