Just to be sure, this is the %post script in the rpm, not the kickstart

I see lines like this:

/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.34500:line 4: /bin/cp: No such file or directory
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.34500:line 18: /bin/cat: No such file or directory
error: %post(microplay-1.0.0.31.i386) scriplet failed, exit 127

Thanks.
