Removing old linux in the %pre section

[Shabazian, Chip]

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,
