I've setup a new system in cobbler to build out a VM and when I PXE boot
using the new system, it is trying to call a kickstart with the name of
the new system rather than the kickstart file I've specified in both the
cobbler system and profile.
How do I get cobbler to respect the kickstart file that I specified in
the system?
I recently upgraded to:
cobbler-1.6.2-1.el5
When I boot into the system I'm trying to build, it picks up the PXE
boot and starts into the build and then errs out with the following:
Unable to download the kickstart file. Please modify the kickstart
parameter below or press Cancel to proceed as an interactive installation.
http://<ip to cobbler server>/cblr/svc/op/ks/system/<hostname>
So it's trying to find a kickstart with the name of the system that I'm
trying to build, rather than the kickstart specified in the config.

The following potential problems were detected:
#0: since iptables may be running, ensure 69, 80, and 25151 are unblocked
#1: yum-utils need to be at least version 1.1.17 for reposync -l,
current version is 1.1.16
#2: fencing tools were not found, and are required to use the (optional)
power management features. install cman to use them
