[Spacewalk-list] Need help with registration problems.

[Edward Drummond]

I have tried this:

%packages
@ Base
@spacewalk-client
%end

and the installer tells me the group does not exist. The config channel
(spacewalk18-client-fedora16-x86_64 ) is on an activation key on the
ks file, not on the file itself. Does it matter?

The name is "@spacewalk-client", right? How would I issue something
like 'yum grouplist' against a spacewalk server?
