Is it possible to simply do 'rpm -qa >> my-ks.cfg' ?
When running anaconda installer, it gives system selection as well as
package
grouping (desktop vs server -> gnome vs kde -> gnome-pilot etc), which file
provides these info?
You can use kickstart to control what packages are installed.
/root/install.log has the details of what packages are installed by
anaconda.
Yes, it is same like running rpm-qa.
After doing it myself, it can be done by listing 'rpm -qa' under %packages in
ks.cfg, however there are still differences, maybe due to dependencies:
[me@localhost ~]$ wc -l old_system.pkg new_system.pkg
707 old_system.pkg
733 new_system.pkg
1440 total
