Im not going to explain about kickstart, i supposed you know, that one of the features of this program is to run a postscript after installation.So after install packages you can run a set of commands to make a "first-configuration" of your system.
Usually people writes all the "postscript-commands" in the kickstart file like we would do in other scripts. But i want to run this commands from a different script apart of kickstart file.
So i have a file in "ris-server" called postscript.sh and i want to run it in kickstart-client machine just before installation. How to do it ?!?
I have tried mounting the directory of "postscript.sh" and copy to client-machine and run it ; i have tried copying directly, and several ways, it never works....
Would anyone know how to set a NIC to 100 Full Duplex from within a kickstart bootdisk? I just added the Tigon3 module to the bootnet.img - it loads fine but auto-negotiates to 100 Half Duplex for some reason - are there any parameters I can pass on the boot disk to force it 100 Full

latexdiff-vc
LATEXDIFF-VC(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation LATEXDIFF-VC(1)NAME
latexdiff-vc - wrapper script that calls latexdiff for different versions of a file under version management (CVS, RCS or SVN)
SYNOPSIS
latexdiff-vc [ latexdiff-options ] [ latexdiff-vc-options ] -r [rev1] [-r rev2] file1.tex [ file2.tex ...]
or
latexdiff-vc [ latexdiff-options ] [ latexdiff-vc-options ][ --postscript | --pdf ] old.tex new.tex
DESCRIPTION
latexdiff-vc is a wrapper script that applies latexdiff to a file, or multiple files under version control (CVS or RCS), and optionally
runs the sequence of "latex" and "dvips" or "pdflatex" commands necessary to produce pdf or postscript output of the difference tex
file(s). It can also be applied to a pair of files to automatise the generation of difference file in postscript or pdf format.
OPTIONS --rcs, --svn, or --cvs
Set the version system. If no version system is specified, latexdiff-vc will venture a guess.
latexdiff-cvs and latexdiff-rcs are variants of latexdiff-vc which default to the respective versioning system. However, this default
can still be overridden using the options above.
-r, -r rev or --revision, --revision=rev
Choose revision (under RCS, CVS or SVN). One or two -r options can be specified, and the resulting in different behaviour:
latexdiff-vc -r file.tex ...
compares file.tex with the most recent version checked into RCS.
latexdiff-vc -r rev1 file.tex ...
compares file.tex with revision rev1.
latexdiff-vc -r rev1 -r rev2 file.tex ...
compares revisions rev1 and rev2 of file.tex.
Multiple files can be specified for all of the above options. All files must have the extension ".tex", though.
latexdiff-vc old.tex new.tex
compares two files.
The name of the difference file is generated automatically and reported to stdout.
-d or --dir-d path or --dir=path
Rather than appending the string "diff" and optionally the version numbers given to the output-file, this will prepend a directory name
"diff" to the original filename, creating the directory and subdirectories should they not exist already. This is particularly useful
in order to clone a complete directory hierarchy. Optionally, a pathname path can be specified, which is prepended instead of "diff".
--ps or --postscript
Generate postscript output from difference file. This will run the sequence "latex; latex; dvips" on the difference file (do not use
this option in the rare cases, where three "latex" commands are required if you care about correct referencing). If the difference
file contains a "ibliography" tag, run the sequence "latex; bibtex; latex; latex; dvips".
--pdf
Generate pdf output from difference file using "pdflatex". This will run the sequence "pdflatex; pdflatex" on the difference file, or
"pdflatex; bibtex; pdflatex; pdflatex" for files requiring bibtex.
--force
Overwrite existing diff files without asking for confirmation. Default behaviour is to ask for confirmation before overwriting an
existing difference file.
--help or -h
Show help text
--version
Show version number
All other options are passed on to "latexdiff".

latexdiff
PORTABILITY
latexdiff-vc uses external commands and is therefore limited to Unix-like systems. It also requires the RCS version control system and
latex to be installed on the system. Modules from Perl 5.8 or higher are required.
