In %pre I needed to mount the disk, /mnt/sysimage isn't there.
Good hint on the sleep command though.
thanks,
If you are just doing one machine, just backup that directory. If you need to do lots of machines, put a sleep statement in your %pre and figure out what you want to do, then add those commands to the %pre.

Subject: Removing old linux in the %pre section
Hi,
I've got a fc6 build that I want to move to centos, i just want to keep a single directory.
Is there some way in the %pre section I could delete all the directories off the disk (apart from 1) and then have kickstart continue and install centos?
I've tried but the %pre section doesn't seem to work. I'm using /mnt/sysimage to access the hard disk, but doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?
thanks,
