I've been getting similar issues. One question I have for you is whether you've included gpg keys for Spacewalk-2010 and EPEL in your kickstart file. Without these keys, I think some post-install package installs will fail, which may be part of the puzzle. </div><div> Anyway, if you make any progress, I'd be grateful if you'd let me know.</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>-Phil</div><div><br><div><div>On May 31, 2011, at 7:06 AM, Matthew Darcy wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div fpstyle="1" ocsi="0"><div style="font-family: Tahoma; direction: ltr; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13px; "><div> </div><div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; "><div><div style="font-family: Tahoma; direction: ltr; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13px; "><div>>Problem 1.)
