Support for multiple package installation for Red Hat derivitives. #514
-
|
I have a need to install multiple packages in the %packages section of the kickstart configuration but other than hard-coding these values, I don't see a way to support such customization. My gold images need sudo, open-vm-tools and perl RPM packages installed during the creating of the RHEL template. The same problem exhibits itself when I want to customize logical volume management. Do I really need to create a new HCL template for every variation of a "gold" image? I haven't found much if anything regarding support for loops or lists (arrays) in templates. Wouldn't a simple loop or something be appropriate for package installation (at least)? |

This is planned for a future update to this sample project. A pull request is already present and awaiting my testing when time permits. A similar approach could be taken for packages. |
