Lundgren, Andrew <Andrew.Lundgren at Level3.com>

I have a kickstart file that I am using to install multiple machines.  If I install with no %post script, everything runs great.  When I add the following %post section, if fails.

I have been working on this for a few days now without luck,  Any help would be appreciated.

Here is the error, the script follows.

Traceback (most recent call first):
