Make the configuration for root mail's alias in /etc/aliases part of the default anaconda/kickstart install.

Installer should install working system without special questions for 1% users.

There are a million configurations that the installer could ask. Most of them are unimportant to 99% of the world. No point in unnecessarily convoluting the installer.

 

If you need this and the alias will always be the same, put it in your kickstart.

This can also be done via Puppet, Satellite, Spacewalk, etc.

In a several thousand node environment, we have different aliases configurations setup for different nodes based on the target environment or department.
