If you are just doing one machine, just backup that directory. If you need to do lots of machines, put a sleep statement in your %pre and figure out what you want to do, then add those commands to the %pre.

Subject: Removing old linux in the %pre section
Hi,
I've got a fc6 build that I want to move to centos, i just want to keep a single directory.
Is there some way in the %pre section I could delete all the directories off the disk (apart from 1) and then have kickstart continue and install centos?
I've tried but the %pre section doesn't seem to work. I'm using /mnt/sysimage to access the hard disk, but doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?
thanks,
