I *most definitely do not* want the profile kickstart file, but I don't understand why I get that instead of the system one. With older cobbler version (don't remember right now which version was in Spacewalk 0.6) I just created the systems and the kickstartfile was the default for that system. Now it seems that it's the profile one I get instead. Why? How do I get the system to kickstart using it's own file? And if the default in 2.0 is changed, where's that documented? Is there at all any in-depth documentation on the cobbler architecture and how cobbler works with Spacewalk (which template is used where, how to edit templates, where do I add snippets in a template etc.)? /Jonas
