Have you actually tried this to see if it works?  I
haven't yet, although I've considered it.  It would make
the autoinstall/kickstart a lot easier if you had an
Everything option as well.

I'm dealing with classrooms of 16 computers that I need
to load Linux on quickly and easily.  Up to this point,
we've been using Red Hat.  I got Mandrake 7.2's
autoinstall working pretty nicely, although I'm having
problems with 8.0.  Not a big deal, I'll talk more about
it later.  I just thought I'd put in my two cents and ask
for an Everything option, I use the 100% slider in
Mandrake 7.2 and the Everything option in Red Hat almost
every time.
