Has anyone figured out a way to query DNS during the %pre part of a
kickstart install?
I want to make sure there is a DNS entry for the machine being installed
before going thru the entire install. The name of the machine is read
from /proc/cdmline.
nslookup requires a bunch of dynamic libraries as seen by doing
$ ldd nslookup
libdns.so.4 => /usr/lib/libdns.so.4 (0x40029000)
libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x40170000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 (0x40187000)
libcrypto.so.1 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1 (0x4019c000)
libisc.so.3 => /usr/lib/libisc.so.3 (0x40258000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x4028a000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x403ba000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
so putting the binary in the NFS mounted /mnt/source area won't
work.
Suggestions??
