Re: [suse-autoinstall] Mount From a Post-Install Script...

Hi!

What I do is:

<![CDATA[#!/bin/sh
mount 1.2.3.4:/local_x86 /usr/local
rpm -iv /usr/local/SOFTWARE/suse90/*.rpm
umount 1.2.3.4:/local_x86
]]>

And it works. Does your mkdir really work? Perhaps /mnt is already mounted
by autoyast at that time. Have you tried mounting to another directory?

Regards,
Andreas
