THanks, Jerry Kickstart in RHEL5/CentOS 5 you can do this %post ( do your stuff here ) 1/root/kickstart-post-install.log 21 Not sure if older versions of RHEL/CentOS support that. nate Nate, I tried the above suggestion and it did not have the desired effect. Everything gets logged to log file. I was hoping for a way to log to the file and also still see it on the screen also. Is there a way to do that?

For my systems I have the server email me upon initial reboot among other things the contents of the post-install for review. nate ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Jerry It looks like this: %post ( do your stuff here ) 21 | tee /root/post-install.log works except for 1 item. I do a yum udpate in the post section and NONE of the data that gets printed during the yum update was logged. Everything else was logged just fine. Any idea there?
