You probably want to chroot /mnt/sysimage first so that you are in the built environment. Once you got it worked out, you simply put those commands in your %post.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=899154915-18092007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>You can also search the archives as I know there have been issues and suggestions in the past with NFS.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=899154915-18092007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=899154915-18092007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Chip</FONT></SPAN><BR></DIV> <DIV class=OutlookMessageHeader lang=en-us dir=ltr align=left> <HR tabIndex=-1> <FONT face=Tahoma size=2><B>From:</B> kickstart-list-bounces@redhat.com [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@redhat.com] <B>On Behalf Of </B>Maute, Kevin P CTR AFRL/VAOO<BR><B>Sent:</B> Tuesday, September 18, 2007 7:49 AM<BR><B>To:</B> kickstart-list@redhat.com<BR><B>Subject:</B> %post details<BR></FONT><BR></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Folks,</FONT> </P> <P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am somewhat new to kickstart but have been using it with cobbler with a lot of success.
