The new lower limit of 1000 for normal user and group IDs is another issue.
The current user has IDs 500 and has rather
a lot of files that I want to keep.
Fedora's documentation says to use a kickstart file to keep 500.

How?
If it's documented anywhere, I can't find it.
From what I've read, %post won't work.
IDs from the 500-999 range will already have been allocated.
'Tain't obvious that %pre would work either.
If %pre runs before everything else, /etc won't exist yet.

The %pre example has me really confused.
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/16/html/Installation_Guide/s1-kickstart2-preinstallconfig.html
The example writes out a partioning scheme,
but to work / , /bin and /tmp must already exist.
What is going on?
