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.

Subject: Fwd: snippet keep_ssh_host_keys not running in background


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!
