Ah, there's a missing RPM dependency somewhere:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in ?
File "/usr/share/rhn/actions/kickstart_guest.py", line 23, in ?
from spacewalkkoan import spacewalkkoan
File "/usr/share/rhn/spacewalkkoan/spacewalkkoan.py", line 29, in ?
from koan.app import Koan
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 64, in ?
import configurator
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/koan/configurator.py", line 36,
in ?
import simplejson as json
ImportError: No module named simplejson
Installed python-simplejson and I'm getting past the error, now.
Thanks!

Hard to say what's up.
Could you run the following on your Xen host (as root, all one line):
$ PYTHONPATH=/usr/share/rhn python -c 'from actions import
kickstart_guest;
kickstart_guest.initiate("kyle.natinst.com", "viola:1:destiny1", "xenfv",
44,
"destiny1", 2048, 7, 50, "xenbr0", "/var/lib/xen/images/destiny1", " ")'
and show the output? It's the same thing as shown above, just called
manually,
without rhn_check (which could be catching some interesting error /
exception
here).
Thanks
