This module exports the classes that define a section of a kickstart file. A
section is a chunk of the file starting with a %tag and ending with a %end.
Examples of sections include %packages, %pre, and %post.
You may use this module to define your own custom sections which will be
treated just the same as a predefined one by the kickstart parser. All that
is necessary is to create a new subclass of Section and call
parser.registerSection with an instance of your new class.

configured at this point, so only IP addresses will work.

You may have more than one %post section, which can be useful for cases
where some post-installation scripts need to be run in the chroot and
others that need access outside the chroot.
Each %post section is required to be closed with a corresponding %end.
If you configured the network with static IP information, including a
nameserver, you can access the network and resolve IP addresses in the %post
section. If you configured the network for DHCP, the /etc/resolv.conf file

Use the %packages command to begin a kickstart file
section that lists the packages you would like to
install.
Packages can be specified by group or by individual
package name. The installation program defines
several groups that contain related packages. Refer
to the repodata/\\*comps\\*.xml file on the first CD-ROM
for a list of groups. Each group has an id, user
visibility value, name, description, and package
list. In the package list, the packages marked as
mandatory are always installed if the group is
selected, the packages marked default are selected
by default if the group is selected, and the packages
marked optional must be specifically selected even
if the group is selected to be installed.
In most cases, it is only necessary to list the
desired groups and not individual packages. Note
that the Core group is always selected by default,
so it is not necessary to specify it in the
%packages section.
The %packages section is required to be closed with
%end. Also, multiple %packages sections may be given.
This may be handy if the kickstart file is used as a
template and pulls in various other files with the
%include mechanism.
Here is an example %packages selection::
%packages
@X Window System
@GNOME Desktop Environment
@Graphical Internet
@Sound and Video
dhcp
%end
As you can see, groups are specified, one to a line,
starting with an ``@`` symbol followed by the full
group name as given in the comps.xml file. Groups
can also be specified using the id for the group,
such as gnome-desktop. Specify individual packages
with no additional characters (the dhcp line in the
example above is an individual package).
You can also specify environments using the ``@^``
prefix followed by full environment name as given in
the comps.xml file. If multiple environments are
specified, only the last one specified will be used.
Environments can be mixed with both group
specifications (even if the given group is not part
of the specified environment) and package
specifications.
Here is an example of requesting the GNOME Desktop
environment to be selected for installation::
%packages
@^gnome-desktop-environment
%end
Additionally, individual packages may be specified
using globs. For instance::
%packages
vim*
kde-i18n-*
%end
This would install all packages whose names start
with "vim" or "kde-i18n-".
You can also specify which packages or groups not to
install from the default package list::
%packages
-autofs
-@Sound and Video
%end
""", epilog="""
Group-level options
-------------------
In addition, group lines in the %packages section
can take the following options:
``--nodefaults``
Only install the group's mandatory packages, not
the default selections.
``--optional``
In addition to the mandatory and default packages,
also install the optional packages. This means all
packages in the group will be installed.
