I don't know if there's an automated way to create a kickstart that
matches the current system (though that would be pretty cool).

The method that springs to mind is to look at your yum logs to see
what packages you've added (or removed) and add (or remove) those in
the %packages section of the anaconda-ks.cfg.

But perhaps someone else knows a better way.  I'd like to know what it
is too.
