Guest about RHupdates

[Daniel Segall]

Including updates directly in your kickstart is really more trouble than
it's worth IMO. The way I do it is make a yum update repository (which
gets sync'd to a mirror periodically), and have the kickstart do a yum
update in the %post. This way I always have the latest updates, without
the hassle of rebuilding my image everytime a new package is updated.
