Since you are using kickstart, I assume your network is set up correctly on the client machine. You can copy files from CD yourserver , and server that directory by a web server, then you can use wget to download any files from, or use rpm to install pkgs directly from the web server.

I was afraid of that, not being able to do it in a chroot'ed enviroment. No big problem, just have to rewrite most of my %post scripts. Unless someone has figured out a way to do it ;) . And yes, this is RH 7.0, so I can't use the --bind option.
