No the spacewalk server will save them in the same place so based on either the checksum or the signature I'm not sure which its using. But essentially it will dedup itself.

In order to use kickstart it is recommended that you use a child channel that has tools for kickstart. Suppose you put the RPMs from an install dvd in a repository under Manage Repositories and the spacewalk client tools under a 2nd repository. Then in channels you make a parent channel that includes the rpms from the dvd and a child channel that includes the rpms from both the dvd and the Spacewalk client tools. Does this mean that you will end up with 2 copies of every rpm under /var/satellite/redhat from the install dvd and thereby waste 3-4GB of space?
