Re: RHEL5 - copy files from DVD during %post

Where did you put dispatch.skipStep("methodcomplete")?

Mine was just after dispatch.skipStep("network"), or more importantly: not inside any of the "if" blocks in that function.

You could also try commenting out the anaconda.method.ejectCD() line in the doMethodComplete function at the bottom of usr/lib/ananconda/installmethod.py.

I worked around this in the past by modifying usr/lib/anaconda/kickstart.py in the stage2.img and adding dispatch.skipStep("methodcomplete") to the list in the setSteps function.

I think I tried the other patch you mentioned only to run into the cdrom device or mount point being deleted before %post. I have the skipStep method written down in my notes so I believe that's what I settled on.

I tried this, both with and without the other "fix".  In all cases, the
DVD is ejecting immediately after controller drivers are loaded.  It
can't even start to install.  I know it's the stage2.img, because if I
replace a hacked one with the original, the install will proceed.

Has anyone made this work?  I could really use the exact steps that will
result in a DVD that will stay mounted for %post, or a link to that
stage2.img that I can download.  I'd prefer to know the correct edits
that I can do myself and wind up with a working image that I can
reproduce in the future.
