I am having a kickstart and only recently I face the following problem. Everytime I reinstall a machine, a Warning textbox appear stating: The kernel was unable to re-read the partition table on /tmp/had (Device or resource busy). This mean Linux knows nothing about any modifications you made. You should reboot your computer before doing anything with /tmp/had. The above message keep appearing and I have to keep clicking IGNORE until it reach a point it started to do the installation. After that everything works fine. What could be the problem? The ks.cfg is as follow: Any help would be much appreciated. Also I am reinstalling on HDD with Redhat 7.3 already in. Will this cause the problem, but the kickstart file clear all partition and initlabel. Please advise.
