RE: python in %pre

["Shabazian, Chip" <Chip Shabazian bankofamerica com>]

Ouch, that's a lot of coding for something that could have been found in the list archives.  Here is what I use:

 

# Determine how many drives we have
set $(list-harddrives)
let numd=$#/2
d1=$1
d2=$3

 

# This will give you all the drives in your system, and their sizes.

 

if [ $numd -ge 2 ] ; then
cat << EOF >> /tmp/partinfo
part pv.01 --size=1 --grow --fstype=ext3 -->volgroup volgrp01 pv.01
part pv.02 --size=1 --grow --fstype=ext3 -->volgroup volgrp02 pv.02
WHATEVER YOU WANT FOR PARTITIONING HERE

part swap --recommended -->EOF

Subject: python in %pre

Hello

 

I'm trying to solve my disks detection problem. I've found a way to do which is using python

The problem is that I encounter a import error. It seems that python is not able to find the modules.

 

Below is my %pre section. Note that it does not work with %pre --interpreter or with a #!/usr/bin/python

Can somebody help me ?

Thanks
