Try: cobbler profile getks --name=foo instead, which does the same
thing, and is meant for user-humans so they don't have to remember the
URL patterns.
I will check that out thanks.
I am guessing there is something wrong with the XML file that SuSE
does
not like, and it's not a permissions problem.
The XML file works fine when I grab it from another server so I know the
file is okay and being parsed fine. It just can't get the file from
where it is supposed to be on Cobbler, so I am pretty sure it is
permissions on the Cobbler side.

Cobbler distros have a parameter called --breed that determines how to
render out the kernel arguments.
I used the --breed=suse when I imported the distro, and there is where
the autoyast= argument got added, but I just can't seem to find where
this actually is at - it is not in the profile or distro configurations,
so it is a bit odd.
Thanks for your suggestions Michael
I might suggest that Cobbler make it so if you use the --breed=suse that
it creates the directory path to where the autoyast files are supposed
to be and perhaps creates an essentially empty one. It creates the
autoyast= argument, but by default this will cause problems when you go
to install - if the Suse installer can't reference the file (which of
course it won't be able to as it does not exist) it restarts the install
process and loops.
