Pushpendra, Thanks for the response. After rereading the documentation I see how it says where to put the –optional parameter and it’s not at %packages. -Brandon

On Behalf Of Mr. Pushpendra Chavan Hello Brandon, The option --optional shall be used with the package group not with %packages section. The same is available in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6[1] and 7[2] as
well. A link[3] from Fedora Documentation also explains about it.

I understand some options and flags were added
in newer releases of Anaconda but I cannot find documentation stating which options were added in which Anaconda version. A “works with RHEL {version}” would also help. My current question is this, for package selection I would like to also install optional packages using the --optional parameter at %packages --optional
but for a RHEL6 installs Anaconda throws the error “no such option: --optional” Is the --optional parameter not available for RHEL6 installs? ###################### # Package Selection # ###################### #Core Packages %packages --optional @core @base @Compatibility libraries @Desktop @Development tools @General Purpose Desktop @Server Platform Development @X Window System ntp Thanks, Brandon
