With katello-configure 0.1.10-1 we now support the ability for the
installer to have the initial administrative username/password and Org
be set. This is documented here:

https://fedorahosted.org/katello/wiki/Install#AnswerFileOptions

NOTE - I tested system registration and some other basic tasks in UI. I
have not attempted to load a manifest or sync content. But katello ping
oauth indicates communications between components is working.
