Got rid of those 3 path errors, but still boots to blackscreen rather than gui.
EDIT:
It works however with manualy booting to init 3, and then go init 5, but not straight.
Been there before, right after it stoped booting directly to init 5.
EDIT2:
Ah yeah, the initial KS looks like:
The first 6 builds, were just from "ks/008-..." down to "ks/999-...", now eventhough i've already figured there that it was "ks/022-...", i've had to build all options to make sure no other kickstart file interfere[ds].
After i made sure its only the 022 file, i've tried diffrent combinations for the scripts, and tried diffrent settings of each script, until i was sure the post-skel.sh script was the real trigger whether or not i could boot to gui from the built image.
I just cant think of a reason, specialy since it once worked, why the copy of files into /etc/skel would stop the GUI from loading...
Could someone please shed some light on this please?

So after googling not for errors but for "how it's done", i found that many copy the 'skel' files inside the "%post --nochroot" section...
So i've appended that after copy the files to chroot's /root/spin_files.
Snippet from within %post --nochroot:
Upon successfull build (quite inadequat) it still doesnt boot to gui, files are copied.
On the first build with this change, i've accidently just copied the folder 'spin_files' to skel (as in /etc/skel/spin_files, THAT booted fine to GUI.
So i'm back to... if i copy files to the skel dir, i cannot boot to gui.
Which to me denies the goal of this live image.
In Unix, is there any way in which I can create a GUI like Realplayer? I mean the Windows Look & Feel.
Borded with buttons, windows, dialogs and other predefined widgets, I am wondering how to create my own buttons that come in different shapes and fashions or even draw images/control objects... (2 Replies)
