Hello Mogens, Thank you very much for your reply and I tried the following things according to your suggestions: 1) mount -t iso9660 /dev/hda /tmp/one >/root/mounta.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdb /tmp/one >/root/mountb.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /tmp/one >/root/mountc.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdd /tmp/one >/root/mountd.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/hde /tmp/one >/root/mounte.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdf /tmp/one >/root/mountf.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/sda /tmp/one >/root/mountaa.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdb /tmp/one >/root/mountbb.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdc /tmp/one >/root/mountcc.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdd /tmp/one >/root/mountdd.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/sde /tmp/one >/root/mountee.log > 2>&1 mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdf /tmp/one >/root/mountff.log > 2>&1 mounta.log shows: mount: special device /dev/hda does not exist mountb.log shows: mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist mountc.log, mountd.log, mounte.log, mountf.log, mountbb.log, mountcc.log, mountdd.log, mountee.log and mountff.log all show similar info as mounta.log and mountb.log, complain special device /dev/hdx /dev/sdx does not exist. only mountaa.log shows: mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /tmp/one busy. which means only /dev/sda is recognized by Fedora Core 4 at post the installation time. all the rest devices are not recognized by Fedora Core 4 during that time. 2) df >/root/df.log 2>&1 the content of df.log is as follows: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 74921528 2041844 69012440 3% / /dev/sda1 248895 13523 222522 6% /boot no info about cdrom during post installation time. 3) cat /etc/fstab |grep cd >/root/fs.log 2>&1 fs.log is an empty file, which means at the post installation time, fstab has no information about CDROM. So my problem is: I have a tarball on CDROM which is needed to be moved to hard drive, how can I copy this tarball to hard drive? RedHat 9.0 doesn't have this problem, RedHat 9.0 can recognize cdrom at the post installation time, But Fedora Core 4 seems not. This doesn't make sense, for Fedora Core 4 suppose to be improved based on RedHat 9.0, My head is hurt a lot. Any further suggestions will be highly appreciated! jing --- Mogens Kjaer <mk@xxxxxx> wrote: > jing han wrote: > ... > > > > I found "mount -t iso9660 /dev/hda /tmp/one > >/dev/null > > 2>&1" doesn't work for me, which means I cannot > copy > > myCustom.tgz to hard drive. > > I use a mount in %post in my kickstart file, > however, > this is for mounting an NFS drive during a network > install. > > It works fine. > > Could you change the line into: > > mount -t iso9660 /dev/hda /tmp/one >/root/mount.log > 2>&1 > > and look into /root/mount.log after reboot and see > if there's an error > message? > > Maybe it's because /dev/hda is already mounted? > > Try adding a > > df >/root/df.log 2>&1 > > and see which mounts are available. > > Mogens > > -- > Mogens Kjaer, Carlsberg A/S, Computer Department > Gamle Carlsberg Vej 10, DK-2500 Valby, Denmark > Phone: +45 33 27 53 25, Fax: +45 33 27 47 08 > Email: mk@xxxxxx Homepage: http://www.crc.dk > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list > __________________________________________ Yahoo!
