Thanks for your help. I've tried a %pre solution now and it seems to work
great. Here's what I did:
%pre --interpreter /usr/bin/python
TTY = 3
import os
import sys
import snack
import time
import fcntl
import termios
pid = os.fork()
if pid != 0:
os.wait()
os._exit(0)
os.system("chvt %d" % TTY)
fd = os.open("/dev/tty%d" % TTY, os.O_RDWR)
os.dup2(fd, 0)
os.dup2(fd, 1)
os.dup2(fd, 2)
sys.stdin = os.fdopen(0, "r")
sys.stdout = os.fdopen(1, "w")
sys.stderr = os.fdopen(2, "w")
os.setsid()
fcntl.ioctl(fd, termios.TIOCSCTTY, 1)
screen = snack.SnackScreen()
if "reboot" == snack.ButtonChoiceWindow(screen, "WARNING",
"WARNING! All data on your hard disk will be DELETED!",
buttons=["reboot", "continue"]):
os.system("reboot")
while 1: time.sleep(10)
screen.finish()
os.system("chvt %d" % 1)
%end
Best regards,
