I added another concept but with two small icons, a configuration
checklist and a stack of drives. Not as busy as the previous concepts
but I'm not sure if the visual metaphor works.

Hi Bryan,
Here's a few tips. Starting with a highres always leads to suboptimal metaphors.
Think how you'd execute that at 16x16px. You're using way too many elements here.
My understanding of the kickstart tool is that it creates a sort of receipe to perform
future installations automatically. That's where you should focus with the metaphor.
Think recipe, installation, automation, cloning... and try to minimize the number of
objects required.
cheers
