Hello Am a RHEL noob, so pls excuse the naive question; Wanted to find out if anyone has attempted to customize/edit your initrd's init script; what I'd like to do is to be able to: 1. grab the /proc/cmdline arguments passed on during a pxeboot of a diskless station 2. parse the commandline into variable so I can use to pass as argument to a service that's called within the current init script. Is this possible using /bin/nash? if so, how? Example (snippet of init script) - currently does this echo Attaching to iSCSI storage /bin/iscsistart -t iqn.2008-04.com.mylab.foo3:storage.foo -i iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:a950ce57a2bb -g 1 -a 192.168.17.3 - I'd like to: a. grab commandline parameters pass from the "APPEND" line in the pxelinux.cfg/<configuration file> b. place it in variable, so that I can simply edit the above command and use the appropriate "target" value. c. In bash, it would look something like this: #!/bin/bash # | | var=` cat /proc/cmdline | cut -d " " -f6 | cut -d "=" -f2` echo Attaching to iSCSI storage /bin/iscsistart -t $var -i iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:a950ce57a2bb -g 1 -a 192.168.17.3 ====== I am a linux newbie, and just realized that /bin/nash is really not like bash ... any help or advise on how I can grab a commandline when running the intrd's init script? thanks in advance, -- A S P A S I A . . . . . . . . . . .. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
