Thanks! Applied (had a minor fixup as we had a fix to support iso
filenames with spaces). And tested - as you've described a few times,
when it boots it asks for the ks path that it just failed to find, and
you press enter and it works. It's that niggly delay...

Upstream was looking into waiting for some event from the kernel IIRC.
Will that bear fruit for F11 you think?

cheers,
