I use a similar section to your code in one place in a floppy sourced ks.cfg file to write an entry to root's crontab. Reading your email and looking at the test FC1 installs I have been working with in the last couple of days has highlighted the fact that any %post command before it is completed, the crontab section that worked with RH7.2 no longer works and any of the code after it (with the exception screen echos to plot progress) is also not working.
I have just completed a ks install with the crontab code at end of the %post section, all code up to it is now working, but the crontab section still fails to work. As a workaround I suggest you replace your code with the following
echo "nameserver 10.104.241.115" >> /etc/resolv.conf echo "nameserver 10.114.215.20" >> /etc/resolv.conf
At this stage I am not certain if there is a syntax error (the crontab section has been edited recently) in my ks.cfg or if the problem appeared with FC1.
