Thank the makefile for small mercies

RHEL/CENTOS 6.7 it out, and at last the issues with anaconda crashing, due to crufty Intel gfx drivers in PXE boot, are resolved.

I’m still not taking xdriver=vesa rdblacklist=nouveau out of my kickstart after all the crap I’ve been though with that driver.

Little hint for the pxeboot kernel RedHat, it should only support basic vesa for xdriver. We don’t need anaconda to look pretty and hi-res. It just needs to be functional and when you stuff the kernel with crufty drivers, it is most certainly not functional.
