screen lock for unattended kickstarts

[Poole, John J]

Jeremy,
      Tried "noshell" in the kickstart boot parameters, exactly what I needed.
Thank you much,
John

Adding "noshell" to your boot parameters will make it so that the shell
on tty2 won't be started.  Then the only input would be if you left
something out of your ks.cfg
