Redhat Kickstart Post Install

[inforeqd]

I have my kickstart setup, runs great, installs the OS and all packages via HTTP. Now I would like to do the following.

I have a tarball containing some specifics for our machines. In the past after loading the OS I would just put the tarball on the machine, untar it and run my post install shell script that in turn puts everything where it needs to go.

How can I do this via kickstart??? Somehow I need to get the tarball over there and untar it I'm thinking. Any ideas??

Thanks Much

Have you seen this chapter?

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/R...on_Guide/s1-kickstart2-postinstallconfig.html

You should be able to move the tarball with the other files and execute the appropriate commands in the %post section of teh kickstart file.
