Jeremy et al, Going back to my previous thread about hosts with multiple NICs, could %pre be used to query the user for the device? In other words, at the time %pre is run, has anaconda already chosen which eth device to use for kickstart? If not, maybe I could write a routine to query the end user for the proper ethernet device before anaconda runs. I'd much rather do that than mess with the anaconda source :) /Brian/ On Tue, 2003-09-23 at 17:28, Jeremy Katz wrote: > On Tue, 2003-09-23 at 16:55, sjsmith3@xxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > > Is there a way to have a python gui popup from the %pre section > > of a kickstart file to get user input? > > You should be able to set DISPLAY to :1 and then display something. > > Untested little proof of concept scriptlet > > %pre --interpreter /usr/bin/python > import os, sys > os.environ["DISPLAY"] = ":1" > import gtk > win = gtk.Window() > win.add(gtk.Label("hi")) > win.show_all() > gtk.main() > # End > > Cheers, > > Jeremy > > > _______________________________________________ > Kickstart-list mailing list > Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list -- Brian Long | | | Americas IT Hosting Sys Admin | .|||. .|||.
