If you have a better name for that I'd love to hear it. what istall type are you actually doing in the installer? are you doing a minimal install or server? 'server' as a default install type is a rather generic concept.. and is not going to meet any single person's definition completely. To really setup a server for specific tasks requires customization you aren't going to be able to rely on a default install type in the installer to give you exactly what you want. Why isn't kickstart file creation enough flexibility to create the system the specific system that you want? There is room in the ecosystem for an array of pre-baked kickstart files if there are people in the community willing to work on them..collect them.. and maintain them. -jef"mmmmm beer"spaleta
