By the way, if you put just this in kickstart you get exactly that: %packages --nobase --resolvedeps openssh-server yum-rhn-plugin Now, that pulls in about 800M of other packages because of the deps. Perhaps you really want some statically compiled minimal version of some of these (though you'd be hard pressed to do without python). If it's a VM you might be able to do without openssh-server and use only the functionality in RHN. I doubt it would really save you much, though. _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list rhelv5-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
