Hi there,
I'm building a completely CD/DVD based RHEL5 kickstart install. I've to
integrate additional stuff like JBoss and Raid utilities. I have tried
the same way I've done it a lot of times with RHEL4 by mounting and
accessing the CD/DVD in the %post stage.
Apart from the /tmp/cdrom device file disappearing after the packages
are installed (does make mounting the CD not easier) it looks like the
CD is ejected before the post scripts are run. To verify I did a:
%post
echo "Sleeping in %post..." > /tmp/anaconda_dbg.log
sleep 180
%post --nochroot
echo "Sleeping in %post --nochroot..." >> /mnt/sysimage/tmp/anaconda_dbg.log
sleep 180
The CD is clearly ejected before %post is done. So remounting to get to
my custom files is out of question. Am I overlooking something obvious
or is there a way to prevent this behaviour?
Cheers,
Goetz
