In the installation process will I be able to pin a specific package 
somewhere in that process?   I have a repository I've tested it with an 
operational system, and the pinning works.    The question now becomes 
where would I need to wedge this into the installation process?   And 
suggestions on the preferred method.

Thanks for the suggestions and time.
