Hello All, We are installing a package during the installation of the Linux machine using the kickstart file. But a pre-requisite for the package installation is that an useraccount has to be present. Can we add an /usr/sbin/useradd command in the %pre section of the kickstart file ? Will this resolve the problem. Is there any better way of achieving the same ? Thanks in Advance, Sarika __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
