How do I call a .sh script from a kickstart file?


Having spent almost a whole day trawling the internet I still can't seem to find relevant information regarding running a script from the %post section of my kickstart file. Here's the problem:
I have a kickstart file which works swimmingly <no problem there>
I've written this fancy shell script which has extra configuration commands.
This 'fancy' script is located on my floppy (same as my ks.cfg file).
How do I run my shell script??

I have something like this <which doesn't work obviously>:
%post
/mnt/floppy/config-script.sh

Any help would be appreciated.
