I believe you will run into this when the %pre has a bash error in it
somewhere.  Either comment out the entire %pre (except for the sleep) or
run it through kickstart-validator to see what it reports.

Hi 
 
Yep, tried that, It fails with "/tmp/partition.cfg not found".  The
sleep at the top of the %pre script is not executed.  Does the partition
need to be provided prior to the %pre script nowdays?

	I'm using %include in my command section just fine.  If you post
your scripting, we can look for obvious errors, but the best thing to do
would be to simply put:
	 
	sleep 999999999
	 
	in your %pre and then open a terminal (alt-f2) and walk through
the pre manually to see where it fails.

	Hi all 

	I'm in the process of looking at migrating my RedHat Satellite
based RHEL3 kickstarts to RHEL5.  Previously, I've always had a
'%include /tmp/partition.cfg' and code in the %pre script to determine
what '/tmp/partition.cfg' looks like.

	What I'm finding now is Anaconda/KickStart is complaining about
/tmp/partition.cfg being missing before the %pre script has run.

	Any ideas on whats going on with this? 

	Thanks
