Thanks for the suggestion! I guess I could try to set up a PXE server.

However I'm not considering kickstart. I kind of insist doing the
partitioning interactively; there's other stuff on the target disk that
I'd like to keep intact.

Would it be possible for me to rebuild an ISO with just a few mods here
and there in order to get serial IO upfront?

Thanks!
