Maybe this will be helpful, here is the Spacewalk documentation on how to setup kickstart distributions / profiles:
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToKickstartCobbler

It's a little dated, the examples are referencing Fedora 9, but I don't think anything has changed.

Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] No Kickstartable Channels/Tree found.

I chose suse as the distro. I read a guide and I think I need to do it
manually, using cobbler. I'm still a bit vague on how it works though.

Here's the link to the guide:
http://fluxcoil.net/doku.php/cobbler/sles

Upon following the guide I have an active kicstart profile created (but
of course it can't be managed by spacewalk).

Thanks.

    What options are set in the dirsto :)? It could be that you have
    Installer Generationset to something other then suse?

    Suggests also that you cannot wizard the creation of them, you need
    to upload an autoyast (wassat?), so it could be that, not familiar
    with suse though im afraid

            Maybe

            But if you click in Systems - Kickstart - Profile - create a
            new kickstart profile

            Can you send to us the print screen ?!

                That's what I've been trying to do.

                Oh my, just had a chat with my colleague. I'm not
                familiar with Red Hat and I rarely play with CentOS, so
                I didn't know that Kickstart is actually a feature to
                automate installation in Red Hat. No wonder it failed
                since I'm trying to create a kickstart for suse
                *facepalm*. I supposed I need to look into autoyast instead?

                Thanks for the help,

                                Hi,

                                Recently I installed Spacewalk on a
                                virtual CentOS 6.5. The installation
                                went smooth. I followed the following
                                guides to setup software channels,
                                distribution and kickstart:

                                
http://www.sysadminwiki.net/site/doku.php/services/spacewalk/server_configuration
                                
http://www.sysadminwiki.net/site/doku.php/services/spacewalk/distribution_configuration


                                I failed to create a kickstart profile
                                due to not having a Kickstartable
                                channels and Kickstartable tree. I have
                                created a Kickstartable distributions
                                and it was successful. I do have a valid
                                base channel as well as tree path. I'm
                                stumped.

                                What did I miss? Please advise.

                                Thanks.
