Removing docs on yum_core_mirror_from_server (off by default), now explaining yum_post_install_mirror (which is on by default, and only slightly different).

 This name is used as the save location for the mirror.  If the mirror represented, say, Fedora Core

 When updating repos by name, a repo will be updated even if it is set to be not updated during a regular reposync operation (ex: cobbler repo edit --name=reponame1 --keep-updated=0).
 
-Note that if a cobbler import provides enough information to use the boot server as a yum mirror for core packages, cobbler can set up kickstarts to use the cobbler server as a mirror instead of the outside world.  If this feature is desirable, it can be turned on by setting yum_core_mirror_from_server to 1 in /var/lib/cobbler/settings (and rerunning "cobbler sync").  You should not enable this feature if machines are provisioned on a different VLAN/network than production.
