Even a minimal install with nobase installs about 40-50 i386 packages on a 
64bit-System. I know this has come up before and thought it might be an 
FAQ, but I can't find it on the wiki.
Some questions are answered here:
http://www.goitworld.com/rhelcentos-x86_64-and-i386-packages-mess/

but I have these remaining:
- can I tell via kickstart to just install the 64bit packages?
- is it safe to rpm -e remove all i386 packages? (assuming I'm not going 
to install any i386 packages later)

Thanks.

Kai
