for me dhcp in production is not really an option. i can get away with it for bare metal but alas not for rebuilds

We're not going to do client-side templating of kickstart files in koan because we already do that Cobbler side, and also because to support older distros (EL3), we can't use the same templating engine... which adds way too much complexity, and it is also hard to explain why we'd actually need that feature if we already have a cobbler command that does the same thing :)

In conclusion ... (A) use profiles with DHCP, or (B) run cobbler edit command before using koan. Those are the two suggestions.

thanks for your advice regarding this issue - i'll see what i can come up with.

Tom,

I've applied Al Tobey's --autonet patch to koan upstream.

This seems like it will fix your problem for profile based reinstalls, because it will add in the IP info on the kernel command line based on what you are currently using.

Might be worth checking out. You should be able to use koan 0.6.4 from git with your existing Cobbler install.
