Kickstart Gurus,

I have a fully contained ISO image of the original RHEL5.1 32-bit source tree, along with some additional RPMs & a custom ks.cfg file. The goal is to totally automate the build to a VMware VM via mapping the ISO file to a virtual CDROM.

Also of potential interest, if you have Cobbler and PXE infrastructure (or can set it up):

If you want to just do ISOs, the easier approach (IMO) to the above is to take the rescue CD and just add the "ks=" line to it with a network kickstart -- in most applications that will work. Of course that requires that the server location be accessible over the network -- which in itself is not too bad.
