My experience has been with Fedora rather than Centos, but I have found that I need to include the various rhn packages explicitly in the kickstart under Software -> Package Groups. For F11, I include the following packages:

dbus-python
perl
python-dmidecode
m2crypto
wget
rhnlib
rhn-check
rhn-setup
rhn-client-tools
yum-rhn-plugin
rhnsd
osad

You might not need to explicitly include all those, but I disable the default repos via a pre script to force using Spacewalk only, and I also select 'Don't install @Base package group'.

If you don't want to do that, then you could try modifying the comps.xml file in your distribution tree to require the rhn-setup packages in the Base package group...

Hello,

I did push all http://spacewalk.redhat.com/yum/1.5-client/RHEL/6/x86_64/
packages to my main CentOS channel.  And that's not work better.

I did dissect the kickstart file and I'm unable to detect which line
is responsible for installing  rhn-setup packages needed for
registration.

Could someone explain?

regards,


Frederic

rhn-setup package is missing, so registration does not work.
Yes, all Spacewalk packages - including rhn-client-tools, rhnlib,
yum-rhn-plugin - has been removed from Centos.
I tried to talk several times to their devels to add it there, but
unsuccessfully.

You have two option.
1) Persuade somebody to add it to Centos.
2) Add this packages to your Centos channel/repo so it is available
during kickstart.
