Properties like -keyboard mapping, timezone, and network config are edittable the first -time the computer is booted. - -Reconfig mode uses the same sources as the anaconda installer. When anaconda -is run in reconfig mode (using the --reconfig command line option) the -user is prompted for various configuration details. - -The standard way of setting up anaconda for reconfig mode is to create -the file - -/etc/reconfigSys - -as part of the installation process. This can easily be done as part of the -kickstart procedure with a %post section at the end of the ks.cfg file: - -%post -touch /etc/reconfigSys - -The /etc/rc.d/init.d/reconfig init script is run and it tests for the -existence of the /etc/reconfigSys file.
