Thanks! Is there any documentation on the Kickstart format?
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/f8/en_US/sn-automating-instal...
is very brief. More specifically, I wonder:
* Why and when was %end introduced?
I don't know why but I do know when: in the middle of the Fedora release
cycle breaking anaconda because it appended %end (until it got to 1.19).
* Is it still required that %packages is at the end of the KS file?
"The end" here is relative. %pre and %post can come after %packages
still, it is merely that all the other statements, such as partitioning
and install/upgrade or text/graphical, etc... are in the beginning.
Maybe a better way to put it is to imagine the kickstart split in two
sections: one must come first and holds all the answers to the different
stages of the installation process, the other -that must be last- holds
%pre, %post and %packages.
* Why is "mouse" not allowed any longer?
I'm not sure what you mean by 'mouse'.
Kind regards,
