Imagine my surprise to see this on the list the very day that I wrote 
an expect script to install the flash player in the %post section of my 
kickstart file.  However, these rpm's are interactive and unsuitable 
for such a purpose, so it was not energy wasted.  If anyone has links 
to non-interactive rpms, I would be most interested.  Otherwise, lazy 
linux lab admins can modify and make use of my expect script to 
automate some work- http://turing.bard.edu/~lasalle/flashinstall.expect 
.  Just download the flash tarball and modify the spawn line 
appropriately.  Enjoy!
