Hi,
I have been testing out the new OL8 BETA and we create a lot of our own custom installs that use very detailed kickstart scripts. In these scripts we have large %pre sections that call other scripts and gather user inputs before proceeding with an automated install etc. On OL6 and 7 we do this using whiptail but on the OL8 BETA the whiptail command does not exist. I ran a “compgen -c | sort -u” and whiptail is not listed.
so has whiptail been officially removed from the initial OL8 boot image used during the initial build process or is this an omission from the BETA that will be corrected in the final release? It is available / installed as a package after a standard install but just NOT available during the initial boot image used by the likes of kickstart etc.
regards
Wayne
