Description Richard Keech 2004-08-26 11:30:20 UTC 
Description of problem:

In the Kickstart advanced options screen, where it is possible
to edit individual lines of the kickstart file, the use of
quotation marks in the xconfig line caused a problem.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

RHN Satellite version 3.4.0 build 37.


How reproducible:

Consistent.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Create a kickstart profile.

2.  Use advanced options to edit the profile and add an
xconfig line with something like:

   --card "SiS 930"

3.  Save the updated profile.
  
4.  Select advanced options to edit the profile again.

5.  Save the profile a second time.

6.  View the completed kickstart file and the xconfig line
has invalid, html-style elements like "&amp;"
