What I do with kickstart installations is to only install the Base group with kickstart, then update all those packages in the %post using yum. Then upon reboot, a script runs (which was set up in kickstart %post) that uses yum to install all the other packages I want. This way, the newly-installed OS never runs except with the latest packages installed. David -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
