Martin:

The method= part will only work with the patches in my rpm. It fails
when setting up the repos. 

I'm testing a work around for missing openssl rpm on usb installs ATM, I
placed the missing rpm in a directory /updates on the usb key. Then I
ran createrepo on that directory, and to the top of the ks.cfg file
added: "repo --name=updates --baseurl=file:///mnt/isodir" 

Install is running now, will report back later with results
