Annoying license at install

I'm also not entirely sure which bit is causing you the bother, so I'm not
sure what to advise.
I install with kickstart with:
eula --agreed
firstboot --disable
I create /etc/gdm/custom.conf in %post:
[daemon]
InitialSetupEnable=False
I think that's my lot.

Questions on making a kickstart cfg
So I took the anaconda cfg, commented out the partition/disk pieces and
ran it off my repo server and it almost worked.
Little things like not including things I had done on network setup. No
first boot.... :)
So now I am reading up on building a kickstart cfg

Kickstart finishing Installation
Hallo,
which switch is the right one for Centos 7.6 to finish the installation.
Every Installation needs an acknowledgement at the end when the network configuration is shown while installing with grafics.
Thanks

Kickstart issue: 'dialog' doesn't work in %post, CentOS 5.5
Hi, all.
I'm trying to customize a CentOS installation cd, but got trouble with kickstart.
I want to use dialog[1] for command line based user interface, but it can't display correctly in kickstart with CentOS 5.5. Same ks file works with CentOS 5.3 (both i386 and x86_64).
What's the different between CentOS 5.3/5.5? I can't find it in release notes.
And how can i fix it?
Thanks

Cannot use kickstart file to install CentOS 6.2 into a blank harddisk
I am trying using a kickstart file to install CentOS 6.2 into a new virtual machine (the MBR sector
of the harddisk is all zero), however I found that the installer cannot go through the harddisk
partition. It failed after I chose "Use All Space" at harddisk partition option.
The error message is:

Centos 7 License???
Today I did a yum upgrade to my kvm'ized Centos 7 test machine
(perhaps a bad day to do such a thing) and received new kernel
vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64, among many other things.
When I rebooted, I was asked to confirm (or renew, or some such)
my license. My LICENSE ???
I was booting in text mode and the actions required were
a) unfamiliar, and b) hard to understand.
As I recall, I

Has this been tested? My understanding is that systemctl doesn't work
in chroots, and can't be used in %post.
Regardless of that, the graphical initial setup on 7.3 is probably
provided by gnome-initial-setup

[PATCH] firstboot: rename systemd service file
Currently we install a systemd service named firstboot.service and a
SysV service named virt-sysprep-firstboot. On systems where systemd is
the init system and runs with the SysV compatibility, the different
names make systemd handle them as different services, and thus trying to
run the firstboot script runner twice.

[PATCH] customize: firstboot: make sure to run Linux scripts only once
If a script does not finish, hangs, etc, it would be executed again at
the next boot, since the injected firstboot.sh helper removes it only
after it finished.
Since firstboot.sh only runs executable files, then remove the
executable attributes before running it, so it will not run again.
Also, remove any file found in the scripts subdirectory, be it just run
or run in a previous boot.

kickstart configuration is working fine but some questions
Hallo,
my kickstart configuration (Centos 7.6) is working fine using pxe now but I ve two little problems:
1)
The installation stops in the last screen "installation finished" and doesn't switch to the login-screen.
2)
How can I configure the profile for users to answer all question that are asked after the first login.
Thanks

If a script does not finish, hangs, etc, it would be executed again at

Before executing a script, move it to another internal subdirectory
(scripts-done) and execute it from there, so it is not run again by
firstboot.sh. The downside is that now scripts are executed only once
at all, so if a script fails it

firstboot randomly can't find script
I am running the stock libguestfs on latest Ubuntu 16.04 (1:1.32.2-4ubuntu2).
My guests are also Ubuntu 16.04.
I am running virt-sysprep with --firstboot-command 'dpkg-reconfigure
openssh-server'.
This works 90% of the time, but occasionally when a new guest first
starts it can't find the script:
~# cat virt-sysprep-firstboot.log
/etc/init.d/virt-sysprep-firstboot start

[PATCH 0/2] Delay firstboot scripts to some later time
When firstboot is used from virt-v2v the scripts, if not fast enough, can get
killed by Windows. After windows installs virtio drivers injected by virt-v2v
it performs some internall reboot, stopping all the running services and
killing any running firstboot script. This is problem mostly for MSI installs
(like qemu-ga that was added recently) that can take several seconds to finish.

Pass -a to each tee invocation, otherwise just the last one (so only for

firstboot? CentOS 3.4
What's the best way around "firstboot" ?
"firstboot" hung my machine and had to blown it up to get past it.
If you bypass firstboot, what other config settings is one missing?
I found the following info....
