bash script

hi all,

i have created a basic kickstart file and its great it all works (complete unattended install)

but i want edit /etc/group to add new groups and add a user to that group eg

group_name:x:500:root

and also make a directory eg

mkdir /mnt/new_dir

and also put a new entry in fstab to mount it to that local directory eg

ip_address:/remote_share_path /mnt/new_dir nfs defaults 0 0

cheers

rob

Fair enough.
So, is something stopping you?

i need to know the command to write the script so it adds these lines to the files

man groupadd
you can use any editor you want, like vi, nano, gedit, emacs....
I do not understand what do you really need
