You can also mount other locations from the %pre and then grab files from wherever you mounted. Or grab files via python's urllib. %include in combination with doing a little bit in the %pre provides a lot of flexibility (which was the entire goal). > Alas, even though the file is read, it is ignored, and the package list > is not included. Don't know why. How is it ignored? Should work afaik, but I'd need more information on exactly how your kickstart config and the included file to be able to say why it failed to. Cheers, Jeremy
