I have all the RPMS on an HTTP server and using the following line I

At present I have to manually change the above URL in my base
kickstart file if I have to install on a 32-bit machine. Like, I use
url --url http://debian-management-server/rhel/rhel4/i386/
I am sure there is a dynamic way of specifying such differences in the
form of variables in the pre section of the kickstart. If yes, can
someone give some examples. This will also help me in setting up the
hostname, ip-address and so on dynamically.
Where does your kickstart file live? You could use %pre, but another
approach would be to generate the file dynamically with a CGI script,
served via HTTP.
I don't have any example for this, sorry.
