Inline redirection, like this, will make it easier to read your script. cat > /tmp/part-include << TAG part /boot --size=200 --asprimary --ondisk=sda part / --size=20000 --asprimary --ondisk=sda part swap --size=1000 --asprimary --ondisk=sda part /backup --size=5000 --ondisk=sda part /u --size=1 --grow --ondisk=sda TAG Test your script on a working machine before trying to use it for kickstart. Test bits of the script in isolation, then put them all together. Lastly, I don't know whether kickstart supports an include which refers to a file which is created by the kickstart itself. You are essentially asking kickstart to read the file, process the %pre block, and then re-read the file. Some processors might read the file only once, parsing and reading all include directives along the way, and execute the %pre block, and then execute the main body - the contents of which may already have been frozen. The question ( to which I have no answer ) is "when does kickstart expand include directives?" YMMV. Good luck. _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
