a59dfe5 caused us a few problems:
- sed was breaking the symlink on atomic systems
- /boot/grub2/grub.cfg is not the right file on a UEFI system
- etc..
We'll solve this problem a different way by just not installing
plymouth in our systems, which is another way [1] to make sure
rhgb/quiet don't appear on your kernel command line.

Anaconda is writing an /etc/resolv.conf from the install environment.
The system should start out with an empty file, otherwise cloud-init
will try to use this information and may error:

With moving to grub2 we now need to remove the extlinux bits from the
other cloud images. They were missed in the move
Signed-off-by: Peter Robinson <pbrobinson@fedoraproject.org>
We drop the explicit grub2 as aarch64 only has grub2-efi but anaconda will
sort that out and ensure all the right bits are installed during the install
so we should get the right grub2 bootloader options for each arch OOTB.

The main reason for cloud to use extlinux is the size of deps being
pulled in by grub2-tools. This will be fixed in F-26 with the ability
to use grub2/grub2-efi without the tools package and it's deps fixing
this issue for good. There will no doubt need to be be some tweaking
required here.
We need grub2 in cloud images for non x86 as well as for the increasing
x86 cloud platforms that require the support of uEFI which extlinux
doesn't support.

cmdline makes it so that %post --erroronfail won't actually stop the
installation in a way that imagefactory will detect the problem and
fail the build. See [1] for more details.

So is seems that if you remove the machine-id file it won't regenerate the file
but if you touch the file and leave it empty on boot it'll put a new machine-id
in the empty file. So work around this bug ("feature"?) by touching the file
so we don't have other issues in the process.
We're track the outcome of this in RHBZ 1379800
As referenced on the arm list [1] and as already being done on the docker image we
should remove the unique /etc/machine-id file on compose artifacts to ensure it's
regenerated and unique on each deployed host/device. This unifies the process across
all base ks so it's inherited for each artifact.

it's no longer pulled in by cloud-init (since 2014...). None
of these kickstarts has it in %packages, and it's not in any
of the cloud environment or package groups in comps either. So
it seems like no-one particularly wants rsyslog in the cloud
images.
From compose logs, it looks like trying to enable a non-existent
service in anaconda in Fedora 24 and earlier wasn't a fatal
error (anaconda more or less logged a warning and continued),
but in Fedora 25 and later it does seem to be fatal. It at least
causes one anaconda thread to crash, though the image compose
completes. I think possibly at least the way anaconda's run
in the Cloud compose process, the main thread manages to exit,
but it seems pretty likely the thread crash will result in
problems in the produced image.
Needed on master and f25.
Due to #1369794 , anaconda cannot currently manipulate sysv
services in F25+. So to work around this, take 'network' out of
the services lines in all kickstarts and instead manipulate
it in the %post section, with chkconfig.
Also remove rsyslog from the Atomic image services line because
it doesn't appear to be included in the OStree tree at present
and so attempting to enable the service breaks Atomic image
compose, see e.g.:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/9022/15349022/oz-x86_64.log
also correct the name of the ssh service in fedora-arm-base.ks;
it's sshd not ssh.
After removing grub2 the which package gets removed. Let's add it back
because it is generally useful and because it is needed for many vagrant
utilities to work.
We have had -kbd in the kickstart for a long time, but because of BZ#1199868
it wasn't actually getting excluded. Not having it causes
systemd-vconsole-setup.service to fail so we are adding it back for now.
Additionally we need to add back plymouth to cover up the subsequent failure
of systemd-vconsole-setup.service. See BZ#1272684.
Workaround BZ1262040 by removing the --instLangs arg from the
%packages line and rely on our previous hack to manually remove
langs after install. This fixes BZ1261249.

For some reason the kernel-core is not protected by dnf, so when
we are trying to remove linux-firmware, it was actually removing
kernel-core package. Commenting out the lines for now.
This is pretty cosmetic as live and cloud images don't use passwords
and they install with sha512 fine, but some people may use these
kickstarts as a base for their spins, so we should use best practices.
We control the actual size of the virtual disks with options on the
koji command line. This change will allow the Vagrant root
partition to grow to the 40 GB we allocate in the koji image build
while the base cloud image will remain essentially unchanged, as it
is set to 3 GB in the rel-eng koji call.
