I tried your suggestion Phillip however /mnt/source was not found. After doing some more digging, I found an old thread which addressed this issue. See 'Install of rpm packages in %post - script' thread at: https://www.redhat.com/archives/kickstart-list/2004-April/thread.html#00024 Here's the section I added which enabled me to copy my files from the install disc. %post --nochroot mkdir -p /mnt/source mount /tmp/cdrom /mnt/source cp /mnt/source/custom.tar.gz /mnt/sysimage/root/ umount /mnt/source Hope this helps someone else out there.
