Perfect, thanks! I've never heard of this option before. I've been actively following the list during the first major CentOS 5 releases and I should have noticed it :-) I added it immediately to some systems now.

I didn't know the problem exists only because of anaconda greediness on first package options installation. In that case I may not have needed to exclude at all since I do the initial install with custom kickstart files that install only core plus the packages I want. Good to know.

Again, thanks!
