Hallo, I've been using cobbler 2.6.9 and would like to check if this
behaviors is expected.

Basically, there is a system with associated kickstart file (added via
systems – general – kickstart) and clicking on “view kickstart” all
looks well. But once the server boots and hits the cobble, installation
fails since kickstart file cannot be found.

Then the line ks=http://<cobbler-server>/cblr/svc/op/ks/system/<server>

ia added to the end of “append” in the file
/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/<server-mac> and this resolves the
installation problem.

Also each time a system is updated and saved via web interface, the
ks=http://<cobbler-server>/cblr/svc/op/ks/system/<server> is gone. Is
this all expected?

Sorry, your english is a little hard to parse.

Did you enable netboot/pxeinstall for the system? Doing that should generate a system specific file in /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg file based on /etc/cobbler/pxe/pxesystem.template which should look like:

default linux
prompt 0
timeout 1
label linux
        kernel $kernel_path
        ipappend 2
        $append_line


The append_line will be generated by cobbler with the ks= option.
