1) You can configure firstboot to run after kickstarting "firstboot
--enable" in your kickstart file.
2) Do what I do. Kickstart %post section that installs a rpm with
updates fot yum repos as well as new ones. I import all the necessary
keys and do a "yum -y update" and then "yum -y install packagename".
This way when the computer reboots you have an up-to-date system. I use
this process to add my own custom repo and I have a rpm for "desktop"
systems whose dependancies are the software I want installed.
yum in fc4 should allow:
yum -y shell /path/to/some/file
file would contain:
install foo
remove bar
update baz
groupinstall foo
run
it works in yum 2.3.0 now, iirc, but it's not as refined as i'd like.
