Vincent,I think I must have killed the people on this list asking all of the questions revolving around this. So, it is my turn to answer. :-) Here is a copy of the %post section of my ks.cfg script that has what I believe you are looking for. There are two things to note. Thanks to Philip, Rob, and a RedHat tech, I believe Peter was his name, we have this working. Philip suggested the exec command which was necessary for input. The RedHat tech suggested the chvt command which allows you to see the prompt. Both were the keys to making this work. If you have any more questions about it, mail the list again and I would be glad answer whatever I can.

Hi Kickstarters,A little question: I want to install a system using a kickstart profile. Now,
I want the system to use networking with a static IP adres. I don't want
to edit the ks.cfg everytime with the right IP address, but I want Anaconda
to raise a window asking me for it. I have already gone through the Anaconda
code, but I can't seem to find the piece that handles this. Do anyone have a clue
or tips on how to handle this? Any help is greatly appreciated.Vincent Bodenstab
