Description of problem: When kickstarting FC5, anaconda dropped from an automated install to a manual install when it got to the package selection step. I took a look at the kickstart file that was generated for the profile and noticed that @Base isn't included by default. I think it's the same kind of issue I ran into with the network configuration line in bug# 192028, where the new anaconda for FC5 doesn't seem to have defaults for that kind of stuff built into it (that's pretty much speculation on my part). How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a kickstart profile with only default values. 2. View the kickstart file that was generated for the profile. 3. See that @Base isn't included by default. Actual results: @Base isn't included in the kickstart by default. Expected results: @Base should be included by default. Additional info: This can be worked around by adding @Base through the Software tab.
I tested this on webqa and on the latest rev of the java code on a satellite and it does get @Base added by default to a new profile.
