[Spacewalk-list] Kickstart from a “promoted” channel

[Emmett Hogan]

Let me try asking this a slightly different way:

Does anyone know if you can kickstart a system from a channel maintained with spacewalk-manage-channel-lifecycle?

(Sorry if I didn’t give enough time for an answer to this before…I’ve just been banging my head against the wall about it and I’m up against a deadline now.) :-(

Thanks,
Emmett

I would like to be able to use spacewalk-manage-channel-lifecycle to create a 'dev-centos7' channel and then use koan to build VM's from that dev channel.  The problem is that spacewalk-manage-channel-lifecycle doesn't clone the kickstart tree.  I am thinking I might be able to do it with Activation keys…but so far I have failed with that.
