1. Click the add new kickstart script link in the upper right
2. Enter the path to the scripting language used to create the script, such as /usr/bin/perl
3. Enter the full script in the large text box
4. Indicate whether this script is to be executed in the %pre or %post section of the kickstart process
5. Indicate whether this script is to run outside of the chroot environment. Refer to the Post-installation

of the nochroot option
Note
RHN supports the inclusion of separate files within the Partition Details section of the
kickstart profile. For instance, you may dynamically generate a partition file based on
the machine type and number of disks at kickstart time. This file can be created via
%pre script and placed on the system, such as /tmp/part-include. Then you can
call for that file by including the following line within the Partition Details field of the
System Details
%include /tmp/part-include

The Kickstart File tab, which has no sub-tabs, allows you to view or download the kickstart profile that
has been generated from the options chosen in the previous tabs.
6.4.9.4. Kickstart
Lists the IP addresses that have been associated with kickstart profiles created by your organization.
Click either the range or the profile name to access different tabs of the Kickstart Details page.
6.4.9.5. Kickstart
Lists keys and certificates available for inclusion in kickstart profiles and provides a means to create
new ones. This is especially important for customers of RHN Satellite Server or RHN Proxy Server
because systems kickstarted by them must have the server key imported into RHN and associated
with the relevant kickstart profiles. Import it by creating a new key here and then make the profile
association in the GPG and SSL keys subtab of the Kickstart Details page.
