Sorry, I am trying to get this working with RHEL3.
I will look into adding repositories to the kickstart file for RHEL5,
that sounds really handy.
I've tried linking the 'RedHat/base' directory, thinking I needed the
stage2 stuff, but I still get the same error. Any advice on this, or
alternate methods of doing the same thing would be great.
If this is RHEL5, why not just add a repository in your ks file that
has all the updates in it? Far easier than trying to reconstruct the
install tree.
I don't know why folk are giving EL5/Fedora answers when it's clear OP
isn't using one of those. See where he says "I've tried linking the
'RedHat/base'."
Back on RHL7.x I used to ren a self-written script that updated the
system after install.
I don't know the procedure with official RHEL; on a clone I'd use a
little sed in %pre to configure up2date/yum and upgrade, maybe off a
local mirror but if not, then via a caching proxy.
Not perfectly neat, but pretty easy to do and wouldn't add much to the
install time.
