If I were you, I would use the cobbler's built-in configuration 
management feature, see 
http://cobbler.github.com/manuals/2.4.0/5/3/1_-_Built-In_Configuration_Management.html

You can use it to copy your bash script to /etc/rc.d/init.d/firstboot

From there, what the script does should be under your control.  The
script should be implemented in such a way that it erases itself upon
success (or at least makes itself non-executable).

FWIW, nowadays I tend to always provision minimal systems, and then
use a configuration management framework to do desired changes to
hosts in different categories.  I used to use firstboot, but since
I adopted the aforementioned approach, I haven't had a need to use
a firstboot script anymore. Even for desktop installations, in 
kickstart files, I turn off the firstboot option (which runs the 
Setup Agent) as well.

Regards,
