I think you can also add the file to the resulting iso image.
it should be easier than changing the code (IMO)
1. you have to mount the iso image somewhere `mount -o loop /path/to/isoimage /mount/dir`
2. cp -rf /mount/dir /other/temp/dir
3. cp kickstart.cfg /other/temp/dir
4. umount /mount/dir
5. mkisofs ...
6. put iso on cd

I'm not really sure how the mkisofs command goes.  but you can always look at the pungi
code and see what is done there :)

Be sure that the copy takes two hidden files that are at the root.
