Hello all, My kickstart install is ignoring my post section, real simple things like creating directories, plus a couple rpm -i commands. This section was working before, but I don't know what might have happened to make it stop working. I'll post the post section below, to see if anyone can locate any syntax errors, etc. Thanks in advance, again. Drew ###post section is run in the chroot environment %post --nochroot echo "post section starting" cd /usr/local /bin/mkdir /usr/local/net-sieve cd /usr/local/net-sieve /bin/mkdir /usr/local/net-sieve/bin cd / /usr/sbin/useradd admin chfn -f 'Admin User' admin /usr/sbin/usermod -p '$1$Duy.dyuj$Gcm9kN.DkPSIs2ftclBqH1' admin cd /var/log /bin/mkdir /var/log/httpd #install the rpm's in the post section rpm -i 10.0.0.2/rh/RedHat/RPMS/ns-data_0.4.rpm rpm -i 10.0.0.2/rh/RedHat/RPMS/net-sieve_0.4.rpm #this runs a config script /usr/local/net-sieve/bin/netsieve-config
You should use %post, not %post --chroot. You are creating directories in the install environment, not your system.
