kickstart ESXi 6.5

Hello.

I'm trying to install ESXi 6.5 using kickstart without DHCP, but using a custom boot image containing the ip configuration.

Is there any way after the kickstart before the reboot to login on tty1 to check a few logfiles?

Or is there another way to debug the kickstart %pre and %post sections

In RedHat kickstart it's possible to send syslogs during kickstart to a remote syslog server, is that possible in ESXi's kickstart?

Thx

Jo
