Replying to [comment:2 ausil]:
- What: The current kickstart file is full of kludges for appliance-
creator. Port to anaconda/imagefactory kludges
only kludge is to make sure the right kernel is installed.
Well, maybe from rel-eng point of view. :) But this also includes the password locking, the firewall config, writing /etc/sysconfig/network, and possibly more.
- Where: same as ongoing maintenance of kickstart
- Why: appliance-creator is being retired; anaconda-based installs are
the way forward
Not true it is not being retired, it will still be around and supported
for some time yet.
Sorry, I didn't mean this to be alarmist. I know you're still keeping it around and that it's needed for the ARM builds.
