so far :
1) restored orig anaconda and flags files i patched by accident :-)
2) populated localhost web server "http://127.0.0.1/fc5" with fc5t2
Fedora/base and Fedora/RPMS below it;
3) run recommended createrepo command in /var/www/html/fc5;
4) applied recommended patch eliminating "livecd" option error;
If I try my kickstart file I get a error about "parttype, can't
continue" (I've used the "bootloader --location=none" directive in my
previous kickstart scripts) :
[root@testbox ~]# kadischi
http://127.0.0.1/fc5
/cdimages/fedora-live.iso --kickstart=ks-001_fc5.cfg -C

(hangs here)
Also if I try just :
[root@testbox ~]# kadischi
http://127.0.0.1/fc5 /cdimages/fedora-live.iso
...from an xterm I get a text based install, that wants to modify my
partitions on the hard drive, as I recall I used to get the full
graphical anaconda.
Comments welcome...
