You can point to a private repo that has a customized comps file.

I am not sure what you are asking here. You do supply a ks file for pungi
to use to build the iso. If you really are trying to get a copy of the
ks on the resulting iso, worse case is you put it in an rpm in a custom
repo and specify that package in the ks file. There are probably easier
ways to do it though.

There should be some way to adjust the menu, but I don't know how to do it.
