Description:
    An updated set of installer-related packages is available.  These
    updates will apply to software appliances and derived distributions
    built with new anaconda-templates.  Any software appliance or
    derived distribution that uses custom anaconda-templates will have
    to update anaconda-templates to take advantage of the improvements
    in this release.  These updates will also apply to rPath Linux
    1.0.6 when it is released.
    
    Anaconda now removes rollbacks after the installation to prevent
    accidentally rolling back systems to a partially-installed state.
    The reiserfs filesystem is now supported during installation.
    Custom installations can hide the "minimal" and "everything" options
    in package selection.  Several issues involving custom changes to
    grub bootloader configuration are resolved.
    
    New hardware supported by the 2.6.19.3 kernel is now available for
    installation when building software appliances that use this set of
    installer packages.
    
    23 February 2007 Update: Custom firewall settings (provided with
    kickstart or install classes) did not function correctly.  This
    issue has been resolved, and the 2.6.19.4 kernel is now included
    within the images.
    
    5 March 2007 Update: Rollback removal did not function correctly in
    previous versions.  This is now resolved.
