There are some things that simply don't work. The most important, from
my POV, is that packages associated with an activation key don't install
when the system registers (I *think* they'd have to be in your KS tree,
not your repos). Furthermore, it's not currently possible to define a
Stored Profile of packages and configuration and apply it to all your
clients. So, from my limited experience, it's possible to use Spacewalk
to provision F9 systems and push down packages to install on individual
machines. I think we have to wait until 0.4 to get Stored Profiles to
work.
I've got packages to install just fine associated with the activation key.
The thing I found is that after a typical install you've got a yum config
that's still trying to use all the normal repos. Typically I reckon you'll
want those disabled. You can fix that with a pre-script, and then things get
installed from spacewalk just nicely, which saves me from endlessly rejigging
the kickstart image.
