Moderator is slow .. my original message with an attachment did not go through yet. Here's the original without the attachment:

I just got started with cobbler. I set it up a RHEL6.2 desktop VM, added the EPEL repo, and installed cobbler and cobbler-web: cobbler-2.0.11-2.el6.noarch cobbler-web-2011-2.el6.noarch
I imported the RHEL6.2 install media into cobbler, then added a new system based on that profile. I PXE-booted another VM using the server and it seems to be working perfectly.
So.. where the heck is the kickstart file on the filesystem? Using the web interface, I can "view" it, but I'll be darned if I can find the thing on the server anywhere. AFAICT there's no way to edit the thing through the web UI, right?
I also tried creating a new kickstart file (again, in the web UI), by copying and pasting the kickstart file that was automatically generated. However, when I try that, I get a server error (lots of debug output not shown here) in /cobbler_web/ksfile/save.
Cheetah.Parse.ParseError: Error in the Python code which Cheetah generated for this template: [...]
(full error attached)
BTW, I tried creating just a simple kickstart file with a comment -- that works fine. I only get the error when I copy/paste the auto-generated kickstart.
