In your kickstart file, you can put some shell commands into a %pre section that prompt the user. We use something like this: # # Pre-installation section # %pre #!/bin/sh exec < /dev/tty3 > /dev/tty3 2>&1 chvt 3 install="no" while [ "$install" != "yes" ]; do clear echo echo '********************************************************************************' echo '* W A R N I N G *' echo '* *' echo '* You are starting the xxxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxx Software installation *' echo '* process. This process will install a completely new operating system and *' echo '* software. Any software previously on this system will be irrevocably lost. *' echo '* *' echo '* Do you wish to continue? (Type the entire word "yes" to proceed.) *' echo '* *' echo '********************************************************************************' echo read -p "Proceed with install? " install done clear chvt 1 #%end The chvt commands are needed to make the warning appear on the correct vt on the console. HTH.
