bcl says that due to a mistake he made, kickstart functionality is broken in F17 Alpha RC2. He has a fix pending. Proposing as Beta blocker per criterion "The installer must be able to use all kickstart delivery methods", Alpha NTH.
It would be nice to have kickstarts working in alpha so that we can get more testing done even though it isn't a release requirement until beta. +1 Alpha NTH +1 Beta Blocker
correction, I broke RC3 kickstarts, not RC2.
