You can put your scripts anywhere you want on the cdrom but here are the
ground rules:
- %pre scriplets can see the cdrom under /mnt/source
- The cdrom is not mounted in %post scriptlets. You can use it
though, you just have
to mount it (and be sure you un mount it). Finally, to do
this you have to run your
%post stuff with --nochroot.
Here is an example:
%post --nochroot
mkdir -p /mnt/source
mount -o ro /tmp/cdrom /mnt/source
if [ $? != 0 ]
then
echo "ERROR: Could not mount Install CDROM!" >&2
exit 1
fi
/mnt/source/your_script
umount /mnt/souce

Sorry I mailed it on wrong id and was wondering why no one is helping me
out?
Hi,
I was using a kickstart floppy for my system installation which
does may things in post install section and after reboot. Currently I
used to mcopy the floppy contents to hard disk and create rc5 links to
run them after reboot.
Now I want to elininate the kickstart floppy and put everything on CD
>From documentation I could figure out that is have to place my ks.cfg in
tmp directory of inird image.
But I can't add other scripts (around 50 of them) to this dir as initrd
size goes big.
1.Which is the right place to put my scripts on cdrom?
2.from ks.cfg how do I know the location of this scripts to copy them to
harddisk?
I mean what should be my relative path to call "cp " command be
in the %post section of my ks.cfg
(on floppy I had a simple mcopy a:\...)
regards and thx in advance
vinay
