You have to have /install/packages-list.txt available to the local machine.

I have to do:

%pre
mkdir /nfs/ks
mount -t nfs -o nolock,ro server:/kickstart/stuff/includes /nfs/ks

and then I include

/nfs/ks/package-list

Others on the list use wget in the %pre environment to pull down the package list via wget.

I'm trying to utilize %include Kickstart directive:

% include /install/packages-list.txt

Inside of packages-list.txt is %packages directive with a list of @groups
and -packages like this:

%packages
@core
@base
device-mapper-multipath
-nss-tools
-nss_db
-acpid
<snip>

Problem is it doesn't work. Placing %packages in kickstart itself works
without a hitch.

Anyone has done this before?
