I use cobbler and I push certain information to the kickstarting system via ksmeta, e.g.:
cobbler system add --name=rhel-32bit --mac=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX [...] -- ksmeta="swap=256 puppet=true" This example allows us to define the swap size and if puppet should be installed and configured. We use the last part alot to allow people to deploy a test node which have a lifespan of <7 days. Is this helpful?
