I'm trying to generate a custom spin with pungi *and* add a kickstart
file (and be able to use that).  The custom spin works, I also can
add a kickstart file to the DVD (using growisofs), but I don't seem
to be able to access it.

I tried both of these boot options:

    ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg
    ks=file:/run/initramfs/live/ks.cfg

Using the first method, the installer stops with:

    dracut Warming: Unable to process initqueue
    Dropping to debug shell.

The second attempt continues a bit further (it starts services) and
finally stops with:

    The following problem occurred on line 0 of the kickstart file:
    Unable to open input kickstart file: Could not open/read 
file:///run/install/ks.cfg

The correct boot option seems to need a device name, e.g.

    ks=cdrom:/dev/sr0:/ks.cfg

and now it works.  This appearantly is listed wrong in

    http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart#Boot_CD-ROM

but I found the correct answer in

    http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda_Boot_Options#ks

Maybe someone can update the wrong info.


Thanks for sharing the solution!
