Description

Foreman 1.7 Installation instructions (http://theforeman.org/manuals/1.7/index.html#2.1Installation) changed the way that EPEL repo is installed on target CentOS machine. Previously it was to rpm install a specific RPM from a specific URL. Now it is to install the epel-release package from the CentOS Extras repo.

Is it worth changing the Katello installation documentation to mirror the Foreman method more closely? There are still repos that Katello requires over a basic Foreman install, but since Foreman is a core part of a Katello install, perhaps the repo installation should match?

Just tested the proposed changes against the Foreman 1.8 & Katello 2.2 repos rather than nightlies used in the PR.

Works fine for the 'yum -y install katello' - which is what this is all about I figure. Running the katello-installer now and will update with result.
