I realize that the @everything packages option is now gone in CentOS 5.0

practically simulate the same effect (and I have a good reason for doing
so). I want all packages, all languages. If one installs from CD, and
selects all packages and options, the resulting anaconda-ks.cfg file does
not have a complete package list.

Since you can now add additional repositories at install time, how do
you define 'everything' install?

- performing a kickstart install using the package list from the
full-install-from-CD anaconda-ks.cfg results in a system with only about a
third of the available packages, missing some notables such as openssl.

That should be pulled in as a dependency to just about everything.


So, how do I determine the proper full package list to use in the
%packages section for a kickstart install? Do I have to go grubbing around
in comps.xml to find the proper package list? TIA,

Probably.
