Is there a way that using kickstart I can tell it once its done install
to go right ahead and do a "yum update"

Thanks,

Ok I found a %post section in kickstart but is it valid to
put a "yum -y update" there?

Thanks,

Add this to the end of your kickstart file:
====================%post

yum -y update
====================
In fact, you can do all sorts of things, like configure services using
chkconfig. You have a bash interpreter and your chrooted into your new
install.

I used to do all sorts of crazy stuff in there, until I found puppet :) Now
I have minimal kickstart configs and I let puppet do all the heavy lifting.
