[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk and Cobbler - Ignoring architecture

[Ian Forde]

I had the same problem a while back and never figured it out.  So I stopped
using Spacewalk to provision VMs and started using ovirt (www.ovirt.org)
instead. Spacewalk still maintains everything else though.  *Much* easier
to deal with, and you have more options for managing VMs.
