System / Jumpstart Variables in Bourne Problem

[AnotherAlan]

Hi all,

I am attempting to build a custom jumpstart begin script that builds the profile on the fly.
I am experiencing an error on the following test argument;

if [ ${SI_ROOTDISKSIZE} -lt 36864 ]
then
ROOT_SIZE=10240
else
ROOT_SIZE=15360
fi

the error being;

/tmp/install_config/Begin/etc.be: test: argument expected
Begin script Begin/etc.be failed with return value "1".

I have succesfully used SI_ROOTDISKSIZE in previous scripts.
Can anyone see an obvious error here? It all looks fine to me but Solaris doesn't like it.

As always, all help much appreciated.
Alan

It does appear that SI_ROOTDISKSIZE is undefined. It is safer to quote variables like this when it's possible that they will be undefined:

[tt]if [ "${SI_ROOTDISKSIZE}" -lt 36864 ][/tt]

I'm not sure why it's not defined though...

Thanks Anni,

I'll give it a go with the quotes.

Much appreciated.
Alan
