Hi,
Just wondering if anyone can help me here.
I'm writing a modular kickstart. I have a large number of machines to install,
but I'm only responsible for the base install, other groups configure their
apps etc
So, I've defined a repo as
repo --name ${inst_type} --baseurl=file:///tmp/APP/${inst_type}/packages
and an include of a package list as
%include /tmp/APP/${inst_type}/${config}/packages.inc
In the %pre section, I source the inst_type and config variables with:
cat /tmp/eric_mnt/kickstart/${HOSTNAME}/${HOSTNAME}_installation_param_details
| sed 's/^/export /g' > /tmp/params.cfg
source /tmp/params.cfg
And that works as I use them in the pre section for other things as well.
The problem is that the install just stops, sometime after the pre scripts are
run, about when I'd expect it to start installing the base packages, without
giving me an error I can understand.
But, if I hard code those variables into the %include and repo lines, the build
completes.
Can anyone tell me if variables are not allowed in either the %include or repo
lines?
Thanks
Mike
