I finally got around to testing this, so:

koan --server=admin --virt --system=epi1dev2 --static-interface=eth0

The kickstart halts with "Error downloading kickstart file".

I have gone back to the workaround, which is to build systems one at a
time, and keep the dhcp lease times short.

Am I missing something? Any suggestions?

Thanks!
