Ok, it's been a while since I looked at the import code.

You should still use the directory containing "images" for the kickstart URL parameter, but you may want to list the content in the other directories in the "repo" stanza lines. Actually Anaconda might be smart enough to do this for you automatically based on .discinfo. I would bet it is.

That complexity does come up when wanting to set up the boot server for use in yum package installation (as a local mirror) post install.

What are you using for the source URL?

RHEL5 is split into a few different repos, and (what I do in Cobbler anyway) is use the Server one for the main install tree and add the other repos with the "repo" kickstart
directive, if you need to use them. (I think "VT" is one of those).

This way the main install tree gets set up correctly and you can also get to the other repos as well, because RHEL5 Anaconda supports attaching to those other repositories in kickstart.

So, I'm guessing that your install source probably isn't pointing at the

right place. You could try tweaking it, or you could perhaps just use "cobbler import" and it will
set that up automagically :)
