Description Sandro Mathys 2009-10-15 15:55:05 UTC
In Systems -> Kickstart -> Profiles -> Software -> Package Groups there are (at least) two checkboxes missing. One should add --nobase and the other --ignoremissing to %packages. Right now, One would have to list all packages from @Base with a minus in front of it to achieve --nobase and --ignoremissing isn't even possible at all. Of course, one could also upload a kickstart file featuring those parameters, but I'm sure it won't hurt the wizard to implement this features.

    529232 - add 'no base' and 'ignore missing' options to kickstart
    
    A minimal @base installation installs around 370 packages, with nobase checked
    around 150 packages are installed.

The options are there and seem to work, though no thorough testing has been done yet.
