Motivation

We need to be able to install our own software automatically as part of the Linux installation process. Most importantly, need to install the ktc manager service since it can effectively load and manage the rest of the ktc environment once installed.

Solution

Run ktc_manager's installation script in the post install section of the kickstart file

• Added basic network configuration to the kickstart file so the server can address the internet
• Changed the package group from minimal-environment to server-product-environment so that most packages required for server operation are present. This is a bit overkill at the moment, it would be nice to trim this down since it adds 5 minutes to the total build & test time. Could also be sped up by providing our own RPM mirror repos
• Added a test that asserts that the ktc_manager service is installed and running

Future improvements:

• Need to write the iso file to a different directory on pull request vs main — atm the production iso is replaced by test builds!
