%post -nochroot not running commands?

Hi all.
 
I've been working on a kickstart that concludes the install with a nfs copy
of a runonce script I wrote. The %post not only doesn't seem to be
executing, but I can't figure out where or if I can log %post output.
 
The ks install works fine, it's just the below %post that doesn't effect
anything. Note that I literally commented out everything to if it's working
at all. /etc/test isn't created, nor is the /mnt/entrust dir or the copy
itself.
 
Thanks for ideas, and I hope to contribute in the future as I continue to
work with kickstart installs.
