Hullo
I've recently preupgrade-cli'd a box from f15 to f17 and now my koan/cobbler 
builds no longer inject kickstart files.

Even if I take the stock /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/sample.ks and use it as 
the ks for a profile, when I run:

sudo koan --virt --virt-name=robot  --server=puppet   --system=robot

[robot's defined as being based on f17-i386 profile, which has a Kickstart 
using the sample.ks above]

After powering up, the vm starts a graphical install and seems to have no 
knowledge of the kickstart file.  If I take it through the graphical install, 
the /root/anaconda-ks.cfg is the default created by anaconda. Nothing gives the 
game away when I log into the VM's console during the installation.

It doesn't seem to matter if I use an older profile (I've tried F15).

I'm using cobbler-2.2.3-2.fc17.noarch, and koan-2.2.3-2.fc17.noarch

sudo cobbler validateks doesn't complain (I had to fix the 
$kickstart_start/$kickstart_done in the old kickstarts, but these are not 
present in the sample.ks).

The only oddities that I can identify are /var/log/messages entries like these:
Sep  3 10:28:18 mercury libvirtd[4807]: 2012-09-03 09:28:18.284+0000: 4808: 
error : virSecurityDACRestoreSecurityFileLabel:148 : cannot resolve symlink 
/var/lib/libvirt/boot/virtinst-vmlinuz.
5LB4JW: No such file or directory
Sep  3 10:28:18 mercury libvirtd[4807]: 2012-09-03 09:28:18.284+0000: 4808: 
error : virSecurityDACRestoreSecurityFileLabel:148 : cannot resolve symlink 
/var/lib/libvirt/boot/virtinst-initrd.i
mg.fhjuOM: No such file or directory

which could imply that there's something odd that's preventing the libvirtd 
setting up the boot filesystem, but I don't know enough about the innards to 
work that out.  sudo rpm -V libvirtd shows no errors.

Any pointers on how to work out what's going wrong/how to identify what's going 
wrong?
