That's pretty wierd. Try leaving out the "mkdir -p /mnt/source" line (or telling it to mkdir a different directory name). I think the /mnt/source directory already exists anyway. Maybe the ? char is an extra char at the end of the text or is somehow part of a question that gets asked if the directory already exists when you try to mkdir it. -dave -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Martin Siddall Sent: Monday, April 19, 2004 11:08 AM To: 'Discussion list about Kickstart' Subject: RE: Install of rpm packages in %post - script I've been struggling with this for days and I still have problems with it. Running Fedora Core 1. When attempting to do mkdir -p /mnt/source the script creates a /mnt/source? Dir (mnt/source + questionmark). I thought well ok and changed the copy command to cp /mnt/source?/custom.tar /mnt/sysimage/root Still no luck. Comes back with error message that is intermingled with the kickstart dialog and I can't work out what's happening and why. [Note the installation has been stripped down to one CD - could I have missed and essential RPM ??] Anyone have an idea Many thanks Martin -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Marco Welter Sent: 19 April 2004 15:23 To: Discussion list about Kickstart Subject: Re: Install of rpm packages in %post - script Hi, > %post --nochroot > # cdrom is not mounted during post so i mount it with the --nochroot option > mkdir -p /mnt/source > mount /tmp/cdrom /mnt/source > > # copy updates.conf from the cd to /tmp on the installed system > cp -f /mnt/source/RedHat/RPMS/updates.conf /mnt/sysimage/tmp thank you, no works ;-) > > %post > # creation of admin account - the rest of the kickstart can be performed > in normal %post mode > /usr/sbin/useradd -c 'Administrateur' -s /bin/false admin but not 100 %, when i have a "normal" %post after %post --nochroot whith rpm -ivh /root/xyz.rpm it do not work Bye Marco > ... > > hth > > pantz -- Lx-System GbR Tel.: 0700 LXSYSTEM info@xxxxxxxxxxxx Hauptgeschäftsstelle: Ensinger Strasse 19 - 89073 Ulm 0731 / 602 81 19 Zweigniederlassung: Zur alten Zollbruecke 30 - 87527 Sonthofen Tel: 08321 / 67 42 43 - Fax: 08321 / 67 42 44 E-Mail: mawe@xxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
