The docs do say that yum variables can't be used. So I need to do
something
to fix that. I think in the short run using i686 and 14 are
reasonable.
Ok, that means that I should really create new kickstart and override
the repos when needed. Not ideal, but at least I now know it's the
correct way.
By the way, replacing $releasever with 14 may be a good idea, but please
leave the $basearch in place if possible. It is correctly substituted
for current machine's arch. Therefore it is really easy to build x86_64
and x86 ISO, I just execute "livecd-creator..." and
"setarch i686 livecd-creator...". Which is quite handy and easier then
editing the ks file all the time.
Thank you,
