The downside is your stateless server is going to have to provide a package with the puppet master's certificate. But that's really the right thing to do anyway. That update simplifies a variety of other things in the kickstart as well. > Also running the crontabs will bite, as an FC6 install has a delay > deliberately introduced, which would mean this would potentially take a couple > of hours to progress. Perhaps: ?? Not sure what you're referring to, I've been creating images with those contrab bits since FC6T1 on through FC6. They usually take about 15-20 minutes to run everything, and the machine seems quite busy the entire time :-). Weird.
