Adding firstboot and rhn-applet should do it or doing "yum remove
up2date up2date-gnome" should do it.
On the couple systems I have I generally remove the up2date & rhn cruft.
Firstboot is only used the first time the system boots after the inital
install and rhn-applet is the update notification icon.
