Pre-existing, but ks= should be replaced by inst.ks, as using the inst. prefix
is the current preferred way of passing installer-specific options, the legacy
syntax is still accepted, however, this may be a subject to future changes -
the inst. prefix is supported since fedora 17 and RHEL/CentOS 7 and since we
dropped CentOS 6 from the supported distros, we don't need to keep the legacy
option :).
Today I learned! :)
We can definitely switch to the non-legacy version, and I suspect
that if we spent some time on it we might be able to modernize the
kickstart file itself a bit as well...
