IMO - registering the systems with subscription manager or pointing to in house yum repos should be included as part of system bootstrapping, and not a part of OSAD.  OSAD should simply install the specific packages for the alternate distro.

Might also be a good time to abstract the system packaging module into a higher level one which handles `yum` or `apt` behind the scenes.    We can then manage the list of packages per distro[1].  Throwing this out as an idea vs copy-paste every apt with a yum section.
