Kickstart Script Location

Hi,

I'm using a LiveCD generated by the livecd-tools.  Sometimes during our testing it
would be handy to view/modify the kickstart script that will be used by the live-cd
installer (Anaconda) at local-disk-install-time.  

In other words, we would like to be able to do the following:

1) generate a livecd
2) burn to a CD/DVD
3) boot the CD/DVD in a target machine
4) view/modify the kickstart script (e.g. tweak a few install or post-install actions)
5) launch the installer
6) install to the local hard drive

Can someone tell me where the kickstart file is stored on the livecd image?  

thanks!

There isn't a kickstart used by the live installer.  It's instead
interactive and just dd's over the filesystem image of the livecd rather
than installing packages.

Thanks, LOL...  that explains why I was having such a hard time finding the kickstart
script within the LiveCD image!

Bonus question:  I would rather that the system image installed to the hard disk not use
LVM.  Does anyone know how to instruct Anaconda to not use LVM and just install directly
to the partitions without an LVM layer?

Thanks!
