That is used to boot the actual installer. As you discovered, it's not
related to what gets installed.

There are two ways. First, you could edit the Python code in anaconda that
generates the bootloader configuration (and perhaps provide that as an
updates.img). Second, and what most people do: use sed or some other tool to
edit the generated grub.conf in kickstart post.
