Error trying to mount NFS volume from kickstart in CentOS 5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



The post section of the kickstart configuration file I have been using in CentOS4 looks like this:

  %post
  mount centosmirror:/var/www/html/ks /mnt
  /mnt/ks/post/post.sh > /root/post_install.log 2>&1
  umount /mnt

I tried to do my first CentOS 5 kickstart installation today using an identical post section, but the post install script did not run. After instrumenting the kickstart a bit, I found that the above mount command failed with the following error message:

  mount.nfs: Input/output error

Not a very helpful error message -- any clues as to what is going on? It's a little tricky and time consuming to debug kickstart problems like these, so I thought I'd ask the list and hopefully save some time. If I execute that mount command after rebooting the system, it works just fine.

Thanks,
Alfred
