Anaconda is overkill if all you want to do is blow images onto arbitrary hardware So long as you are going through all this, why not just install to taste into a chroot with yum or RPM, rsync into a prepared hard drive, optionally fix up the fstab grub.conf settings, and run grubby or do a mkinitrd and grub initialization (The transfer and bootloader fixup my be done with a minimal image, PXE loaded, so one does not even need a working CD/DVD/ USB port. PXE has been on substantially all hardware built for the last decade) That approach is portable, and works across all CentOS variants -- Russ herrold
