So you're using Kickstart for Ubuntu?
--- more info ---
I haven't kept up with Canonical's developments. Last time I checked
(within the last year), there was ...
1. Debian installer's pre-seeding
2. Kickstart from the Anaconda (Fedora/Red Hat) "Python stack"
Indeed, the Canonical training materials still teach these two:
http://www.ubuntu.com/training/certificationcourses/server/objectives
Debian pre-seeding isn't exactly the same as, despite claims by Ubuntu
apologists, Ubuntu is not quite Debian.
Likewise, there is still a bit of support missing from the Kickstart
implementations for Ubuntu, and it's not integrated with Landscape IIRC
-- whereas the Anaconda stack is supported by both base tools and the
Spacewalk/RHN system.
Anyone been keeping up with Canonical's developments on this front? Are
they moving towards just adoption of more of the Anaconda stack?

You already know Red Hat as the entity dedicated to 100%
no-IP-strings-attached, community software development.
But do you know where CIOs rate Red Hat versus other
software and services firms for their own, direct needs,
year after year? http://www.redhat.com/promo/vendor/
