I'm not installing the OS from spacewalk, yet.  I'm focusing primarily on 
getting current machines into spacewalk and managed.  I found that should I 
install a package from spacewalk I can manage its chkconfig levels by adding a 
remote command with package install but this is not an option from within the 
activation key. I'm running spacewalk 2.0.

thx

Why not simply add these commands to the end of your bootstrap script?
I normally customize the bootstrap so that the user may enable/disable
his own post-registration tasks on demand.

With a recent Spacewalk there is also a feature called 'Action Chains',
where you could plan the package installation, configuration push and
activation of needed services and schedule these actions in one go.
