Re: kickstart post install show in a window

The output is on one of the virtual terminals. If you do a text mode install, or hit alt-f1 and search around for the right console, you'll find it.

One possible trick would be to run everything in a subshell (see http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/RHNetwork/client-config/4.1.0/ch-rhnreg-ks.html), output it to a file and run something like 

echo "/usr/bin/tail -f /tmp/post_install.log" > /tmp/tail.sh
chmod +x /tmp/tail.sh
DISPLAY=:0.0 xterm "/tmp/tail.sh"

but that would require xterm being installed.

Is there a way to get all the commands in the post install section from
