Put a "sleep 10000" in the %post section, then alt-f2 to the shell to 
see what you've got available.

Personally, I put everything I need in /etc/rc.d/rc.local and replace it 
when done:

# FIRST BOOT
mv /etc/rc.d/rc.local /etc/rc.d/rc.local.sav
cat <<"RC_LOCAL" > /etc/rc.d/rc.local
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/up2date --solvedeps=wfu-cfengine
cfagent -Kvq -DInit
mv /etc/rc.d/rc.local.sav /etc/rc.d/rc.local
RC_LOCAL
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.local

Yours,
John
