Why does "autostep --autoscreenshot" not capturing the screenshots during kickstart installation in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6?
Issue
- The documentation link says as follows
autostep (optional)
Similar to interactive except it goes to the next screen for you. It is used mostly for debugging and should not be used when deploying a
system because it may disrupt package installation.
--autoscreenshot — Take a screenshot at every step during installation and copy the images over to /root/anaconda-screenshots after
installation is complete. This is most useful for documentation.
- Tried following kickstart

- It didn't create any directory
/root/anaconda-screenshots
and also didn't have screenshots too! Why?
