Thanks Tom, was using the earlier koan, tested now with 1.2 but the same result
# koan -s cobbler --replace-self ... - ['/sbin/grubby', '--add-kernel', '/boot/vmlinuz', '--initrd', '/boot/initrd.img', '--args', 'ksdevice=eth0 lang= text ks=http://cobbler/cblr /svc/op/ks/system/fred kssendmac ', '--copy-default', '--make-default', '--title=kick12 21732788'] However I did notice the -k option so running # koan -s cobbler -k ks=file:/ks.cfg --replace-self .... - ['/sbin/grubby', '--add-kernel', '/boot/vmlinuz', '--initrd', '/boot/initrd.img', '--args', 'ksdevice=eth0 lang= text ks=file:/ks.cfg kssendmac ', '--copy-default', '--make-default', '--title=kick1221735005'] Which gives me what I need and the build will complete without any interaction, putting the IP details on the boot line is an option, but this seems simpler ...
