Description Milan Kerslager 2005-03-18 12:18:30 UTC
When "interactive" option is filled in kickstart file, the installed system has
no DNS server in /etc/resolv.conf file (ie. no nameserver line is included) when
configured via DHCP. Because this, %post script fail when using DNS names
instead of IP adresses.

The nameserver line is properly filled up in the resolv.conf file when
"interactive" is not used in kickstart file. I checked it by ALT-F2 shell prompt
and chrooting to the new, freshly installed system before final restart.

I have working DHCP server in my network and we have no problem with other
machines. KS file: http://ftp.pslib.cz/pub/users/Milan.Kerslager/ks/ict-c4gui.ks
