Hi,
Does anyone know why an Anaconda Kickstart installation deploys more rpm packages than a manual "basic" installation?
In both cases the following package groups were installed/used according to anaconda-ks.cfg in root home directory: @core, @server-policy, @workstation-policy

what ones are more or which ones are missing ?
also compare the anaconda-ks.cfg left behind on both attempts, are you sure the %packages section looks identical ?

My kickstart installation does 397 RPM packages. A manual installation does 217 RPM packages.
My kickstart installation uses only an OS repository; no updates, epel or anything like that for this test.
This repository was created using rsync and centos 6.5 iso.
Kickstart package list: %packages @core @server-policy @workstation-policy
Which is the same as choosing the "minimal" installation type during manual anaconda as shown in the /root/anaconda-ks.cfg file after the manual installation is completed.
Hi,
How about using rpm to see what extra packages are installed then we may be able to work out why.
Perform a Manual install and save the result of rpm -qa | sort, then run your KickStart based installed and run the same command. A diff between the two results should show whats extra packages are being installed. :)

Hi,
How about using rpm to see what extra packages are installed then we
may be
able to work out why.
Perform a Manual install and save the result of rpm -qa | sort, then
run
your KickStart based installed and run the same command. A diff
between
the two results should show whats extra packages are being installed.
:)

what ones are more or which ones are missing ?
also compare the anaconda-ks.cfg left behind on both attempts, are
you
sure the %packages section looks identical ?
My kickstart installation does 397 RPM packages. A manual installation does 217 RPM packages.
My kickstart installation uses only an OS repository; no updates, epel or anything like that for this test.
This repository was created using rsync and centos 6.5 iso.
Kickstart package list: %packages @core @server-policy @workstation-policy
Which is the same as choosing the "minimal" installation type during manual anaconda as shown in the /root/anaconda-ks.cfg file after the manual installation is completed.

Hi,
How about using rpm to see what extra packages are installed then we
may be
able to work out why.
Perform a Manual install and save the result of rpm -qa | sort, then
run
your KickStart based installed and run the same command. A diff
between
the two results should show whats extra packages are being installed.
:)

My kickstart installation uses only an OS repository; no updates,
epel
or anything like that for this test.
This repository was created using rsync and centos 6.5 iso.
Kickstart package list: %packages @core @server-policy @workstation-policy
Which is the same as choosing the "minimal" installation type during manual anaconda as shown in the /root/anaconda-ks.cfg file after the manual installation is completed.

I'm not sure if I understand you fully, you mean the note about package selection not being available in text mode?

Sorry for top posting, gmail does that by default.
The only reason I included @core and @server-policy in the kickstart is that they are listed in /root/anaconda-ks.cfg after a manual installation.
Are you thinking that @base is used in the kickstart installation but somehow not in a manual installation?

Lars wanted to say that packages that make the difference are from @Base group. And if you run "yum groupinfo Base" you will see that must be it. Most of the packages match with your list.
