If you want to see the list of package groups installed, try using:
yum grouplist
To use this list in a kickstart file, you can either use these group
names surrounded by double quotes, or find the short names in the
comps-*.xml file. For example, "yum grouplist" on one of my machines
produced "KDE (K Desktop Environment)", which needs to be "@kde-desktop"
in the kickstart file.

Thanks, Randy!
Unfortunately, I typically use to anaconda-ks.cfg following a manual
install to determine package sets for future automatd installs, so the
comps-*.xml files don't help tell me what I currently have installed :)

This is a known issue with RHEL5. I believe it's mentioned in the
release notes. If you look at your install media, you have comps-*.xml,
which contain group info. For example, look at
Client/repodata/comps-rhel5-client-core.xml for a set of groups you can
use.
This is eventually supposed to be fixed. Right now, even
system-config-kickstart is broken.

Subject: [rhelv5-list] What's up with anaconda-ks.cfg
Hi,
I am just starting to play around with RHEL 5. I went thru my
1st install on Friday and discovered something I did not like: many of
the options selected during install were incorrectly represented in
/root/anaconda-ks.cfg.
My main concern is the "%packages" section contained ONLY
"@virtualization" and non of the other package groups I selected. In
addition, the following 2 lines are included even though I selected no
shadow, no MD5 and disabled selinux support:
authconfig --enableshadow --enablemd5
selinux --enforcing
My primary concern is the %packages selection - any recommendations on
how to get the groups I selected? I don't really want to include every
package name.
Thanks,
Kevin
