Thanks Tru!
The above placed in postinstall does disable "firstboot" - and it works
both for system configured to be booted into runlevel 5 and runlevel 3, no
matter that "...setup-graphical" intuitively suggests only runlevel 5. So
much for straight thinking when naming things these days (sorry about
runt). Incidentally, this setting does not disable introduction to the
system on first login for local logins on runlevel 5 (I probably msiread
someone's post and was under impression it will or may, so I specifically
tested whether it does or does not - it does not).
Here is my relevant part of kickstart file postinstall (with runlevel 3):
%post
##########
# blasted new way of setting default runlevel 3
systemctl set-default multi-user.target
# turning off firstboot
# works both for runlevel 5 and runlevel 3
# does not disable introduction for local
# user when one first logs into system on runlevel 5
systemctl disable initial-setup-graphical.service
##########
%end
Thanks again, everybody, for your help!
