Exactly! So, why doesn't it use that when kickstarting? Where's the determination made? It can't be the 'Kickstart'-variable, since all my systems have the value '<<inherit>>' here, and only some of the systems have the problem of getting the profile-ks instead of the system-ks.


then what is 'different' about those systems?


They use a different profile (for xen, since they are virtual), that much I've figured out. This is the output of 'cobbler profile report' on two profiles, the first one causes the system to be installed with the profile-ks, and the second one causes the system to be installed with it's own system-ks:

Both of these profile-ks contains the 'post_install_network_config'-snippet, but for some reason I get the profile-ks for the systems using the first profile and the system-ks for the systems using the second one.
