kickstart

Hi,

We do a kickstart installation of FC-10 at our place. I am quite intimidated by the distribution update pop up that comes up after the O/S installation. I want a keyword to put into the kickstart file that would stop Fedora from intimating with an update pop-up.

Is it possible to include such a switch in the kickstart OR a script that could be added to post.bash?

Thanks, Sayan
