which I didn't understand, and seemed to be counter to most expectations. So I wanted to ask, am I really alone here in left field? Because at least one other posting (earlier today) on Kickstart-list seemed to imply that this is a fairly common expectation/misunderstanding. Anyone else have feelings on this issue either way?

Where would you expect the install source to be mounted if you're installing via http or ftp?
I suggest you learn what environment variables are set (there are some) and where the ks file is, and how to extract the info you want from those sources.
You can, if you choose, have several %post scripts, and the first of those could do the discovery and write the results to the target system in a convenient location.
The first cut would simply be like this: %post set >somepath/somefile ls -l /tmp >somepath/anotherfile cp /tmp/*ks somepath/ -- Cheers John -- spambait 1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Z1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Tourist pics http://portgeographe.environmentaldisasters.cds.merseine.nu/ do not reply off-list
