Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Command to execute commands one after other Post 302455340 by bartus11 on Tuesday 21st of September 2010 09:58:19 AM

Probably that install script runs some other scripts or processes in the background and it is not waiting for them to finish. You can use this line of code to halt your script until the file apears (but it may not be copied completely, so add some sleep timeout after that).
Code:
while :; do if [ -f ~/test ]; then break; fi; done
