kickstart + first run once script..


I am using kickstart to do automation installation for ubuntu desktop, and now i want to put a post-installation bash script in the kickstart.cfg
So the script will run once after the installation.

Can you help me to modify the kickstart script, so another bash script will run once after the ubuntu installtion

my kickstart.cfg

The scripts you want to look at:

/usr/share/debhelper
/usr/share/debconf

or whatever they're called in Ubuntu.
