[Howto-kickstart] How to display status info from %post section

[Nico De Ranter]

Howdy,

I haven't seen much movement on this mailinglist, hope somebody is
listening :-)

When doing a text-based installation through kickstart (redhat 7.2)
the display shows a blue screen while the %post section is executing.
Since this might take a long time I'm afraid this might trigger
my installation dwarfs into thinking the installation has crashed and
starting all over again.

Is there any way a %post section can display a status message on the
screen?

Nico
