Hi listers
i tried to kickstart-install CentOS 6.0 64 in a Virtualbox (Virtualbox
Version 4.12). I used a local CDROM with the net-install ISO on it to
boot from. The ISO distribution file was provided on a server in the LAN
as was the kickstart file.
When starting the installation i aded the following to the kernel line
of the grub menu:
ks=http://install.mydomain.com/ks/centos.6.64.cfg
After i had corrected some errors in the kickstart file, the
installation started as expected.
But it did not terminate as expected: after installing 198 of 671
packages, the installation halted with an error (i.e. after installing
the package libutempter).
In order to see what the problem was, i restarted from the CDROM in
recovery mode, and after going into the half-way installed system, i saw
in the anaconda log that about three quarters of the post-installation
scripts of the packages had returned a warning. The warning code was
255. But the post-installation script of the package libutempter had
returned an error with code 255, whereupon the installation stopped.
I thought, OK, we will work around the libutempter package by selecting
other program-groups in the kickstart-file. But i had no luck: the
installation stopped then after the package MAKEDEV.
Then i left off kickstart-installation and did a standard installation
booting from the CDROM and getting the default packages from the server
in the LAN. This worked fine.
-----
When it came to test the installed packages i was always lucky except
with the package fuse (fuse-2.8.3-1.el6.x86_64) which contains the
binary /usr/bin/fusermount. This binary was installed without execute
permission for everybody, so it could be invoked only by the userid root
and members of the group fuse, which is not, what i had expected.
