If you wanted to include some custom kickstart files on the CD so that
you could do something like:

linux ks=cdrom:/kickstart/officeworker.cfg

or:

linux ks=cdrom:/kickstart/webfarmserver.cfg

In cases like this, the files can't be packaged up in some RPM.  I'm
sure that having unpacked files on the CD could be useful for some %pre
and %post scripts as well.
