own kickstarts you should start with the minimal example, it includes several
needed packages that are not always included by dependencies.
livemedia-creator parses the 'part /' entry to determine how big a disk image
needs to be created. This means that the common kickstart technique of using
%pre to generate a partition scheme for use with %include will not work. There
needs to be a 'part /' entry in the main part of the kickstart.
Only one kickstart file is supported, so if your kickstart is built from a
number of %include commands it needs to be flattened into a single file with
ksflatten first.
