The org_fedora_oscap addon which does the remediation bits runs in the /mnt/sysimage chroot environment and accesses the files in /etc/yum.repos.d (looking at strace)
Because of this, I don't think it respects the repo or proxy lines in the kickstart file, hence my attempt to edit the repo files directly before the addon executing.
Just to check, the %pre section of the kickstart runs before the disk is partitioned, is the correct?
And the %post sections run after the packages have been installed?
So is there anyway to get files onto the target system before the packages are installed?
Thanks

/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo isn't replaced or updated: it's a

I had to wait until I could check, but I was sure of it. And my own
cobbler-installed systems have relied on this since at least centos4,
despite many, many updates of the centos-release.
(I use a modified %yum_repos macro in the kickstart to write a cron job
that creates a new repo file, so the repos in my profiles always launder
out into the subscribed hosts. Works well)
If you *delete* that repo file, though, yes, of course, it's going to be
restored with a new copy. Maybe don't do that.
