I am remastering the DVD. No issues there.
Is there a way to remove the /pool directory on the ISO?
When I do that, remaster, and use the iso to boot, I get errors - about not
finding packages.
I "desire" to install "everything" over the internet- I want to remove the
/pool directory to save

This is my autoinstall - it errors with FAIL and backtrace. Nothing on the
screen is of any meaning to me to tell me why. IS there a reason anyone can
see ? Thanks,

autoinstall:
version: 1
early-commands:
- echo a
- sleep 1
- echo a
locale: en_US
How do I have conditionals in the autoinstall file ?
For example in kickstart it is just based on sh or bash for the %post
section.
How do I do the same thing in the early-commands or even the late-commands ?
I want to test if a kernel command line value is present and if so go do
something.
How
I had to change to legacy CD as live and desktop did not seem to support
kickstart.
Can this be re-considered. With the CentOS 8 issues happening - more people
might be looking at switching - and kickstart is something they use?
Seems as though kickstart was getting fazed out.
Thanks

I have 4 partitions in my %pre section.
Each one I have --asprimary however kickstart is making a sda5 partition
instead of sda4.
is there a reason why ?
Something like this:
echo "bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=$HD1SHORT " >
/tmp/partition-information
echo "clearpart --all
How can I get fdisk (or equivalent) available in %pre section of kickstart ?
I am trying to get the total size of the disk. Is there another command
available besides fdisk ?
Thanks,
Jerry

Thank you - however this does not seem to be true. I am a long time
CentOS user - and this document seems good for CentOS.
However- just something like "editors" that are supposed to be available it
says Vi. It is not available on Ubunutu duing install only nano.
However - looks like blockdev
How do you "detect" disks in the %pre section of kickstart ???
I have tried fdisk - command not available
I tried ln busybox to fdisk and it says applet not available.
I tried dmesg | grep vda and dmesg | grep sda - seems as linux has not yet
detected teh disk during the pre section...
So how
logged in as me on the desktop I can play audio no problems.
When I run a program as root with su (so as that user) - but run it as a
another user (me) I get no audio
su myuser -c "export DISPLAY=:0.0; totem movie.mov"
No sound... How can I get sound this way ?
Thanks,

However, it has to be set up in a directory for itself and a companion

I have 1 late command:

After install this file is not present.
I would rather not do echo > /targer/root/testing...
Is chroot /target not available in late-commands ?
How do I execute command(s) in late-commands as a "normal" situation ?

CentOS 7.
So I need to make a grub menu entry and set the default to be my cloud

Hi All,
I have tried several attempts to user-data file for autoinstall.
This is the latest - this is the error:
2021-01-13 19:41:13,845 INFO subiquity:135 Starting Subiquity revision 1966
2021-01-13 19:41:13,845 INFO subiquity:136 Arguments passed:
['/snap/subiquity/1966/usr/bin/subiquity']
The example on this page did not work for me.
https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall
Anyone have an example file that if you select al lthe default values on a
by-hand install ?
Then I can te tweak from there.
autoinstall-editor seems NON-existant.
Thanks

Correct. I am trying to determine the correct disk vda/sda/nvme and then
the size.
blockdev --getsz /dev/vda
in the %pre section did nothing. Perhaps something is not available yet at
boot for this to work.
