[Spacewalk-list] Need help with registration problems.

[Jon Miller]

I've seen a similar error during some of my initial kickstarts. The error
that sticks out to me is your:
   /tmp/ks-script-QpNRzX: line 207: rhnreg_ks: command not found
   /tmp/ks-script-QpNRzX: line 213: rhn_check: command not found

What I did was explicitly include "rhn-setup" and "rhn-check" in my
packages list for my kickstart profile. Try including those packages and
see if your registration works.
