It doesn't even look for the .discinfo file in the correct location.

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.
