Ops, sure! > $ROOTCMD apt-get install apache apache-common php4 < /dev/null I tried that but postconfigure of the php4 package asks if one wants to run the apacheconfig script and so the installation hangs. Even adding a '--force-yes' or a '--assume-yes' option for apt-get had no effect. So unfortunately a pipe or a redirect of stdin don`t work. I think the main issue is why a parent process and a same child process are started if there is a command like: "yes | apt-get install ...". What could be the reason why a 2.6 kernel is causing the trouble? regards, Heiko Zang
