[Spacewalk-list] Fedora 21 in spacewalk

Hello,

I would expect, that if you'd:
* sync fedora21 repository into your channel,
* mount your fedora21 iso
* create a new distribution (Systems - Kickstart - Distributions)  by pointing to the kickstart trees on the iso
you should be able to create a f21 kickstart.
There's a chance, it could work. :-)

There're definitely no cobbler/codes.py changes necessary. 

Regards,
