You might try something like this. I haven't tried it on 7.2, but it works in 3.0: # change to new virtual terminal and set stout/stdin there exec < /dev/tty6 > /dev/tty6 chvt 6 # gather you're data with echo and read, etc. Robert Wehner -----Original Message----- From: jason.ctr.alburger@xxxxxxx [mailto:jason.ctr.alburger@xxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, July 02, 2004 9:23 AM To: Discussion list about Kickstart Subject: post installation script question RH 7.2 Is it possible to run a script that requests user inputs during the post installation script phase of a kickstart installation? I'm trying to set some network configurations based on user inputs with a script at the bottom of the ks.cfg file in the "%post" section, but I never even see the "echo" statements that are in the %post section.
