ok, i kind of found the answer to this in

lib/foreman/renderer.rb

in function 'load_template_vars', where the @static http parameter is read. 
So I can add my own 'reinstall' parameter there and get my kickstart 
template to work. Unfortunately this involves altering the Foreman code, so 
if anyone knows of a better way to achieve what i want I would be very 
grateful!
