The installer (and alt-F2 bash prompt) work out of a ramdisk. "%post --nochroot" works out of a ramdisk "%post" works out of /mnt/sysimage which is the hard drive You can have multiple %post and %post --nochroot sections. --RB Rebecca.R.Hepper@xxxxxxxxxxx wrote:
Hello All, I am working with RedHat 9.0. In my %pre section I determine the type of hard drives and create a file containing the drive type as shown below: echo "ide" > /tmp/drivetype In my %post section I try to read the info from that file into a variable: %post driveType=`cat /tmp/drivetype` I receive the following error message during the %post: cat: /tmp/drivetype: No such file or directory If I go to the alt-F2 window, I see the file and can do a 'cat' on it. What is going on? Thanks! _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
