The line in the kickstart that gets generated is: wget " http://cobbler2.example.com/cblr/svc/op/yum/system/testmachine.example.com"; --output-document=/etc/yum.repos.d/cobbler-config.repo returns an empty file. There is no error in the logs. The file exists but is empty. So some how the contents of this internal variable were not created. I would love to debug this further but not sure how. man cobbler does not make mention of any debugging or logging. Nor could I find an parameters in /etc/cobbler/settings to change debug level.
