I deal with this by copying over a script that does this stuff to /tmp, then echo "/tmp/firstboot.sh" >> /etc/rc.d/rc.local The last couple of lines in firstboot.sh remove that line from rc.local and reboot the machine. It is a little messy, but it works, and I have the RPM db and such available to me because the system is actually running from the installed OS. -- *********************************************************************** * John Oliver http://www.john-oliver.net/ * * * *********************************************************************** _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
