Hello,

Sorry for the late reply.  Someone else had this error, and they fixed 
it by opening the ks file (under /var/lib/rhn/kickstarts/*/) and 
changing the #errorCatcher line at the top.  (Note that this doesn't fix 
the underlying problem - it's simply a work-around.)

I would try replacing ListErrors with Echo, and if that doesn't work, 
just delete the line entirely.

Hope to help, and let us know if it works.
