The issue is that the options that are selected using the Spacewalk GUI only go as far as to create a Kickstart template. When a system boots and wants to use a kickstart profile that has the associated template, the actual kickstart file gets generated from this template by Cobbler on the fly and that kickstart file seems to not work correctly. Cobbler is the provisioning system that Spacewalk uses internally (if I am not mistaken).

Does that make sense.
