Hi folks.
I've been reading the threads about booting and installing from
kickstarts on USB Keys, however, i'm trying to mount a USB key in a
%post script (in the chroot environment). I can't seem to get it to
work. Is this possible? What parameters to mount should I use? How do
i figure out what device i should be mounting?
thanks.

Please try this. Use whatever you want to call the mount point
directory. In the example it is myusb. However, I think anaconda puts
its /tmp and /mnt in another location so you will have to make
adjustments. Use your alt f1-f4 keys to poke around and find where they
are. I don't recall off the top of my head. The proposed solution is
untested.
mkdir /mnt/myusb
mount -t fat16 /dev/sda1 /mnt/myusb
