When was "include" directive introduced?

Yeap, the "%include" that is added into ks.cfg to include files
generated in the %pre section. I do realize that it is pretty old, but
that's all I got right now ;) and we have a bit diff hardware, so I
wanna do disk layout and vmkpcidivy with %include

What version of ESX are you using?  ESX 2.x is mostly based on RHAS2.1. 
It's pretty old stuff.

By the "%include directive", do you mean when did anaconda kickstart
start 
parsing it?
