loader/urls.c, by the look of it.
[from anaconda-7.3-7.src.rpm]
    if (!strcmp(ui->prefix, "/"))
        finalPrefix = "/.";
    else
        finalPrefix = ui->prefix;

Either configure your webserver to return the "right thing" from the URL
actually being requested, or try:

>	linux ks=http://kickstartserver//kickstart.cgi

as the ks file specifier; this might fool urls.c into not prepending
"/.".


Hope this helps,
