    Choosing kernel in Kickstart

    Hello,

    I am creating a kickstart and do not want to have the xen kernel installed for RHEL5. I know that I can always install RHEL5 and change grub.conf to install another kernel but when you have hundreds of systems to upgrade to RHEL5 that is just not an option.

    Right now, my kickstart installs and boots 2.6.18-92.el5xen by default. How do I get it to only install and/or boot the 2.6.18-92.el5 kernel?

    Thanks in advance!

    bad idea:
    in post script:

    %post
    rpm -ivh /$PATH/kernel-2.6.18-92.el5.rpm
    rpm -e kernel-2.6.18xen

    Thank you for your reply. Why would you say it is a bad idea to not want to install the Xen kernel?
