Hello, I'm doing an unattended CentOS 5.3 install in a virtual machine vmware. I'm redirecting output to a serial console because production boxes won't have monitors. I'm getting to the point of doing the post installation then the box freezes. The only command i have in %post is yum -y update. I'm not getting no output. Suggestions appreciated. In the commands section reboot is explicitly called so that at the end of the install the vm will reboot. Thanks. Dave.

that's expected: 1) your chrooted post-install does not have any network information 2) nor the ability to acknowledge the import of the GPG key...
I'm not getting no output. Suggestions appreciated.
the kickstart mailing list archives are full of info on how to do that.
Cheers,

Hello, I'm configuring the addresses for the network interface statically so i was under the impression name resolution would work. For the gpg key import i did an rpm --import /etc/pki/ i can't remember the rest of this path though i checked it on a running system. I'm still getting a freeze. Thanks. Dave.

Please, stop top posting and trim your replies...
Show your ks.cfg, your statement don't match your error report... (%post with only 'yum -y update' then GPG key import, ... what else didn't you tell us? )

You had that one in your other post already. Just don't do it use the repo keyword in kickstart instead.
