I have a "%pre" script that can figure out some hardware stuffs and

depending on waht the "%pre" script returns or does.
Is this possible?
I would think it is certainly possible. Depending on what you determine
early in your %pre script (lets say you want the packages from catX) -
you could then write out to a temp file something like this ...
echo "
%packages
@ catX
" > /tmp/packageinfo
then in your ks.cfg file - assuming that you are kickstarting the whole
thing - instead of the section where you would normally write %packages
you would replace that with %include /tmp/packageinfo. This will import
the text from the file you wrote to in your %pre script.
hope that helps
