Hi Andrew, Good question ;-)  I will use Larry Wall's phrase to answer you: "there is more than one way to do it" :-)   Furthermore, IMHO by selecting the desired anaconda mode in the kickstart template, I save effort/time in maintaining our many profiles.  With kickstart templating, even for three distros and various profiles, we only need one short master rh.cfg. Sometimes, I do avoid to use cobbler's built-in features. For example, I prefer to use a central logging server for all distros that we use (CentOS, Fedora, SL, Ubuntu) for remote installation logging and monitoring, but AFAIK the anamon cobbler facility only works for Red Hat alike system so far.

[...] The naming convention makes it feasible to use the above Cheetah conditional check.   Why didn't you just add the text option to the kernel options line for the profiles if you have the different ones? I'm just curious. Regards, Andrew Regards, -- Zack
