There is no kickstart.  It copies the installed (ext3 file)system right 
from the livecd onto the disk.

Alternately you can launch anaconda yourself with a kickstart, assuming 
it defines the appropriately visable network repos.

I've had thoughts about kickstart applied the filesystem copy method. 
It might be doable with code similar to what livecd-creator uses for 
it's "base-on-iso" codepath.  The only benefit there, is that it 
wouldn't hit the network for packages already installed on the iso.
