It would be nice to have an option on the gui to ammend the default selected packages when selecting what is to be avalible on the media. This way you can use the kickstart file as a guide and further edit this for a specific spins needs
I'm not sure I see what you mean. Care to elaborate?
It seems you want to load a kickstart, but then customize the packages in that kickstart. Revisor already does this. I'm not sure I follow correctly so if I'm not, reopen the ticket.
What I ment was on that page where you can modify the kickstart file in other words the screen where you select the packages your media will have put a option to make any number of files automaticaly selected when the installer loads instead of having to go through the installer and manually select the packages in which you added to the dvd
Think of it like this when you make a kickstart file and load it in revisor then make a dvd or cd those packages you selected in the kickstart file are automaticaly set to install when Anaconda loads. I would like to be able to set packages to install by default in revisor so that if you miss a package you wanted to be install by default you do not need to re-edit the kickstart file and start revisor over again
This you do as follows:
%packages foo bar baz %end }}}
Compose installation media using Revisor, selecting:
Boot the media,
ok will try that
OK, closing the ticket for now, let me know if this works out and feel free to reopen if it doesn't.
