Sure! Just make sure they are in the %packages section of your pungi kickstart file and pungi will make sure they're on the install tree/media. Whether or not the user can select them during the initial install is of no concern of Pungi's. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- Fedora-buildsys-list mailing list Fedora-buildsys-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-buildsys-list

Would this require a second ks file that omits the package name, for the automated install, so that it will be on the media, but not actually installed by default? -Yaakov -- Fedora-buildsys-list mailing list Fedora-buildsys-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-buildsys-list

The ks file that you compose from and the one that you install from aren't the same thing.

The ks file that you compose from and the one that you install from aren't the same thing. Not sure what the question is. I was trying to avoid maintaining 2 ks files. I solved the problem by using sed to create an install ks from the pungi ks. joe -- Fedora-buildsys-list mailing list Fedora-buildsys-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-buildsys-list

I got the impression that Joe Nall was trying to use the same ks file.

Joe Nall wrote: Can pungi put packages/groups in the iso that are not installed? Context: I'm building spin using pungi that includes packages that get installed in a second pass in a manner similar to firstboot. The packages require a number of services to be running to properly configure themselves and can't be grouped in the initial install. I want to include the packages in the repo, but not install them until the system has more services running. joe - What I do, is make package of packages. In this way, all available in-house built packages are available to install on first boot, from a slight modification I make to rc.local during the post. Basically, I have in rc.local: if [ packages exist in this dir ] then rpm -ihv dir/*rpm fi Here is a bit of justification for doing first boot packages: postgresql cannot be configured for network access during post install. One of our rpms modifies the postgresql configs, and then creates a specialized database. There are quite a few applications (like postgresql) that generate configuration settings the first time that they are started. Maybe this will get your creative juices flowing towards an even better method, and please, share! :) Good luck! -- Fedora-buildsys-list mailing list Fedora-buildsys-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-buildsys-list
