Michael,
I have the repositories setup already along with a nightly cron job to keep
everything sync'd up and they work great...
I didn't think about creating a custom repo which I populate myself though. In
theory that should work just fine, right? That should allow me to load
whatever custom packages we have and make them available for the kickstart.
Thanks,
Rich

Hello,
I'm wondering if there's a way to add specific packages to the distro used for
kickstarting? For example, let's say I want to install MySQL 4.1.22 (yes, I
know it's old) but the distro only includes MySQL 5. Is there some way to make
the package available during the kickstart? Trying to avoid post-kickstart
package installations...
Thank you,
Rich
See the web documentation and manpage about how cobbler works with repositories.
"cobbler repo add" and "cobbler reposync" are your friends here.
If you are running EL 5 that just works, otherwise just update in %post.
