Slight modification.  I think the "1"s in the comps file only specify what
gets selected by default in the GUI.  The sections will not get installed
if you don't specify them in kickstart (other than Base).

If your packages section in the kickstart file was blank the only things 
that would be installed are the packages in Base.  There is an implied 
@ Base in packages.

If you don't want to install all packages in Base you MUST remove them from
Base in comps file.
