I agree that the installer is complex and the wealth of options and tweaks 
is initially confusing.

If you don't want to install puppet at all you can just pass the 
--no-enable-puppet option which will fully disable the puppet module within 
the installer.  You also need the --foreman-db-type=postgresql to be 
present.

Apart from that I think you are probably ok, assuming you want the rest of 
the defaults.

A better approach may be it initially use the interactive installer 
(foreman-installer -i), and spend a little time going through the options 
there,  I generally use it to build a foreman-answers.yaml then if I am 
rebuilding or doing another temporary test server just use that file.
