In RHEL 5 (and I am not sure about the lastest/pending updates), Anaconda does not apply updates from yum repos at install time. It does allow installing from repos at install time for packages not in the tree, though if a newer package is in a "repo" in kickstart, it will not be used. This was added around Fedora 7 or 8 (I forget now), so that support is coming. Meanwhile, you can run "yum update" in %post or at first boot time if you like. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
