Yes!
I do something similar here. I use a script to generate the "network"
line, because I want to choose my IPs and netmasks during installation
and I don't want to hardcode them in the ks.cfg file.
Here is what I do:
I create a %pre section to ks.cfg, this will be a script (in my case a
Python script) that will ask the user for any needed information. Then
it will look up the boot-up interface by looking at
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf and choosing the first entry that starts with
"eth", then it will generate a "network" line and save it to
/tmp/netconfig.
Then, before on the ks.cfg file, where the network configuration is
expected, I use a %include /tmp/netconfig
For me, it works like a charm! Let us know if you try it and it works for you.
HTH,
Filipe
