KVM Post Install

Below is kickstart file, I have been working on for some time, to help me with some redhat study. It's pretty standard, but it does do some things I am pleased about, such as

• update the server
• enable console access, so I can console to the server (as well as ssh to it)
• install a nice basic set of packages that are useful (base, "Directory Client", and some others)
• remove some stuff I don't like
  
• put my /etc into version control
• TODO: ssh keys, and a repo
