clearpart -all warning

[Markus Eyrich]

Well, as far as i can see this script doesn't even work in a normal 
shell, bash or sh...

  The last line says "read -p "Proceed with install? " install done 
clear chvt1 #%end

Now put the whole stuff into a script, the last line (read...) whould 
look like this:

read -p "Proceed with install? " install
done (closing while)
clear
chvt1
%end

But still, this doesn't work, you can type what you want, even "yes" and 
you won't get out of it, since you now read what is into "install" but 
have to action for it. So i made:

read -p "Proceed with install? " install
if [ "$install" = "yes" ] || [ "$install" = "YES" ]; then exit
fi
done
clear
chvt1
%end

That works. Maybe i'm stupid or something, but the original posted 
script is not functional ?!?

The complete thing is like that:

%pre
#!/bin/sh
exec < /dev/tty6 > /dev/tty6 2>&1
chvt 6
install="no"
while [ "$install" != "yes" ] || [ "$install" != "YES" ]; do
clear
echo
echo 
'********************************************************************************'
echo '*                              W A R N I N 
G                                   *'
echo 
'*                                                                              
*'
echo '*       This process will install a completely new operating 
system!           *'
echo 
'*                                                                              
*'
echo '*     Do you wish to continue? (Type the entire word "yes" to 
proceed.)        *'
echo 
'*                                                                              
*'
echo 
'********************************************************************************'
echo
read -p "Process with install? " install
if [ "$install" = "yes" ] || [ "$install" = "YES" ]; then
exit
fi
done
chvt 1
%end
