Hi If you specify a 'reboot' in kickstart, that would make it work at the end of the kickstart process.... Doing it 'the way of pain', you can do: %post #Flush buffers sync;sync #Reboot 'now' echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger Regards Pablo ----- Mensaje original ----- > De: "whitivery" <co55-sy1t@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Para: Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx > Enviados: Viernes, 1 de Julio 2011 9:12:09 > Asunto: How to reboot in %post? > > Usually I don't want to reboot a built unit - I want to see the > final %post results and scroll back to check it. > > But under some conditions I would like to reboot.
