Subject: Kickstart confusion


I am trying to run some post install commands with a kickstart installation, but some of them don't work;

%post
/sbin/chkconfig --levels 2345 isdn off -WORKS
/sbin/chkconfig --levels 2345 pcmcia off - WORKS /sbin/chkconfig --levels 2345 ypbind off - WORKS /sbin/chkconfig --levels 2345 ntpd on - WORKS mkdir /mnt/install -WORKS mount -t nfs 128.40.159.53:/export/ftp /mnt/install - WORKS rpm -ivh /mnt/install/os/packages/apt* - WORKS rpm -ivh /mnt/install/os/packages/webmin* - WORKS rpm -ivh /mnt/install/os/kernel/kernel-2.6*- DOES NOT WORK rpm -ivh /mnt/install/os/kernel/kernel-smp*- DOES NOT WORK rpm -ivh /mnt/install/os/kernel/kernel-utils*- DOES NOT WORK rpm --import /mnt/install/os/packages/RPM* - WORKS rpm --import /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY - WORKS cp -a --reply=yes /mnt/install/os/configs/* /mnt/sysimage/etc - DOES NOT WORK ntpdate a.server.co.uk - WORKS service autofs restart - WORKS service ntpd restart - WORKS apt-get -y update - WORKS apt-get -y upgrade - WORKS


The kernel install I think I understand, but the copy command I don't. The syntax is correct, but I think it may be something to do with the chroot environment, the manual suggests running with %post --nochroot, but if I do this nothing works at all.

I assume I have done something really stupid which I just can't see. Can anyone tell me where I have gone wrong.

Thanks,

Neil.

Do the failed commands show any output? If so what is the output?
