Ooops, I should have mentioned that I'm installing linux via NFS. Thus /mnt/source points to the nfs filesystem, not the floppy. I'm sorry, I should have mentioned this. Is there another way?

If it is, you should be able to copy files over in the %post --nochroot environment: %post --nochroot cp /mnt/source/ssh-key /mnt/sysimage/root/.ssh/identity (the .ssh directory must exist, of course).
