I've seen a few posts about the kickstart %post section failing but none of these seem to be related to my problem. I'm doing a pxelinux - kickstart - nfs install. The nfs and dhcp3.0 servers on the same redhat 7.3 box. My kickstart file correctly builds the new machine and makes the authorized_keys, but when I try to mount the nfs (located in 192.168.14.1:/tftpboot) and copy a file to the new system kickstart fails. ---------------snip---------------------- %post #put my key in place. mkdir /root/.ssh touch /root/.ssh/authorized_keys # mkdir /mnt/myupdate mount 192.168.14.1:/tftpboot /mnt/myupdate cd / cp /mnt/myupdate/lmsensorsInst.tar.gz . umount /mnt/myupdate ---------------snip---------------------- I wonder if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong? Also where does kickstart send the error output? Thanks in advance. -JH
