Hi again,
well, i found no solution. (The first part was my fault - as i already told, patching
cobbler helps.)
But i found no solution for the background job problems.
I tested all the hints i got. Nothing worked. Thank you for your help.
I also used the newest bash version. I tried to split the snippet in two parts and so on.
It looks, like it is not possible to start a background job in the %pre section of a
kickstart file and maybe also in the %post section. (When i use terminal access via ALT
F2
it is possible to start background jobs via shell while the system is installed!!!)
So, maybe this is not a cobbler problem and i am wrong here with my problem.
Thanx again
Detlev

Hi all,
i am testing the snippet keep_ssh_host_keys.
Well, i am a beginner in cobbler and maybe my problem is a bash problem, but
when i use keep_ssh_host_keys i have two problems:
When i use keep_ssh_host_keys as snippet, i see while kickstart is running:
Unknown command: <!DOCTYPE
Why?
Well, than i put the whole keep_ssh_host_keys script in my kickstart file
and now the script is running until the last part (i can see, the keys are
saved in /tmp):
# Loop until the corresponding rpm is installed
if [ "$keys_found" = "yes" ]; then
while : ; do
sleep 10
if [ -d /mnt/sysimage$SEARCHDIR ] ; then
cp -af /tmp/$TEMPDIR/${PATTERN}* /mnt/sysimage$SEARCHDIR
logger "keys copied to newly installed system"
break
fi
done &
fi
The kickstart process stopped and i think the loop is running, but not
in the background, so the installation process cannot proceed.
Why?
Thanx for any help!

New subject: snippet keep_ssh_host_keys not running in background
This is very odd. My only guess is that's it's a F16 issue. I use this trick on
every machine in the log_ks_pre snippet. It's worked on every RHEL/CentOS machine
I've built - releases 4-6.

Well, i split the script now in two parts and put the last part in the %post --nochroot
section.
Maybe not very professional, but for my small group here ok.
My little feeling of success for christmas. :-) Leisure-time now!
In this spirit!
